  1. /*
  2. The HC-SR505 is a passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor that detects motion in its field of view. Here's an example code in Arduino that reads the motion detection status from the sensor:
  3.  
  4. Note: This code assumes that the HC-SR505 PIR motion sensor is connected to pin 2 of the Arduino board. If you're using a different pin, you'll need to modify the SENSOR_PIN definition accordingly. Also, note that the HC-SR505 is a digital sensor that outputs a high signal when motion is detected and a low signal when no motion is detected, so it can be read directly using the digitalRead() function. Finally, note that the HC-SR505 has a limited detection range and may not detect motion outside of its field of view.
