hi,

PIR sensor can detect human movement. but i think it will detect any warm blooded living creatures.
if u wan to detect human only. then i think u will need to do image processing with camera.



regards,
yh

Agreed with yonghui, PIR might be a low cost solution, yet, it detect any movement with infrared which include small animals like cats, dogs, etc.

Image processing will be the other alternative, as highlighted, you will require more budget and a lot of work to make it recognize human only. :D

tq 4 ur suggestion n idea :D but using image processing with camera, is that high cost?

The camera cost is not a concern... how to come out with the image processing algorithm that works is more crucial.
