Philips Hue Motion Sensor
The Philips Hue Motion Sensor automates your lighting based on movement — walk into a room and lights turn on, leave and they fade off after a configurable delay. The sensor also measures ambient light levels and temperature, allowing for intelligent rules like only triggering lights when the room is dark. Mounting options include magnetic attachment, screw mount, and a tabletop stand. In our testing, detection was reliable up to 16 feet with a 100-degree field of view, and the battery lasted over a year with moderate daily use.
