Microwave Presence detector works using Doppler Effect
It detects stationary and moving people just like a PIR, but it can do that also behind doors and thin walls, by taking advantage of the Doppler effect. By Boris Landoni @ open-electronics.org: The detection of people, animals and hot bodies in general has been done for years using...
