Best selling Motion sensors
Here's a ranking of the best products in this category. To give you a quick overview, we've also added some key information about the products.
1. Philips Hue motion sensor
The motion detector recognizes when someone enters a dark room or leaves a lit one. In the first case, it activates the light with the brightness and color temperature you have programmed. So, for example, if the children need to go to the bathroom at night, they are not blinded by harsh light but are guided through the hallways by gentle illumination. In the second case, when someone leaves a room and no one else is moving there, the sensor first dims the light gradually by 50 percent before turning it off completely.

7. Philips Hue Outdoor Motion Detectors
With the weatherproof Philips Hue Outdoor Sensor, your indoor and outdoor lighting will turn on or off automatically. Thanks to the energy-saving daylight sensor, the sensor only reacts when there is insufficient daylight. This way, your lighting is only on when it is truly needed. The sensor has a detection angle of 160° horizontally and 80° vertically, with a range of 12 meters. The response time of under 0.5 seconds can be individually adjusted in the Hue app. The package includes a mount that can be attached either frontally or in a corner. The sensor is powered by batteries, eliminating the need for disruptive cables. For optimal results, a mounting height of 1.5 to 2.5 meters is recommended. Batteries included.

8. Aqara FP2
The Aqara Presence Sensor FP2 uses state-of-the-art millimetre wave radar technology that can accurately detect the presence of people, even with slight movements. This technology ensures the continuity and stability of the smart device. It can also control other smart home devices through ecosystems such as Apple Home to achieve wider applications. It has features such as human fall detection and a built-in light sensor. Zone positioning: It offers significant advantages over traditional PIR infrared motion detectors as a single radar sensor can be used to monitor rooms of up to approximately 40 m². Furthermore, you can divide the room into up to 30 zones, e.g. sofa, bed or desk. In addition, you can set up individual automation for each zone. It's like using several PIR motion sensors at the same time with one presence sensor, FP2. Multi-person detection: Up to 5 target persons can be detected at the same time. The result is that the system not only divides the room, but also automatically reacts to the position of the different people without interfering with each other. Ultra-high precision: privacy and detection accuracy are taken into account. It is able to detect non-inductive signal detection without collecting real images. Automation can generally be done locally. Millimetre wave radar technology is more stable than detection by infrared sensors, even when you are sitting or sleeping.

9. Sonoff Motion detector
ZigBee Motion Sensor SNZB-06P DC 5V 1A USB-C, 4m. Indoor motion sensor with three sensitivity levels and a detection range of up to 4 meters. The presence detection is based on a 5.8 GHz microwave radar that detects movements or stationary individuals. The built-in light sensor ensures that the light is only turned on when presence is detected in the dark, helping to save energy. Personalize your sensor to your liking: Keep the office lighting on during brief absences and have it automatically turn off after 5 minutes of absence. Smart linking of local scenes: Even if your network goes down, you can still trigger the local Zigbee scene. Explore more possibilities: Based on the platform capabilities of the third-party platform eWeLink App, which supports Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Alice, and IFTTT.

10. Abus Radio multifunction detector
The ABUS Z-Wave Multisensor includes four sensors in one device: motion sensor, thermometer, hygrometer, and light sensor. Thanks to its battery operation, the multisensor can be installed very easily.
The motion sensor alerts you when something moves within a specific area and can trigger various scenes or actions in response. The device also reports the current room temperature, humidity, and light intensity. In conjunction with configurable scenes, it can initiate smart functions, for example, when the temperature drops below 20 degrees, the heating will turn on.
Z-Wave – freedom for your smart home! Z-Wave is currently the most widely used smart home standard. All products bearing the Z-Wave logo are tested and compatible across different manufacturers. The Z-Wave radio standard also impresses with extremely high network stability and range. In terms of security, Z-Wave is a leader: it uses the same encryption standard that is common in online banking.
