The devolo motion detector can be placed inconspicuously anywhere in your intelligent home and keeps a watchful eye on its surroundings. It reliably registers every movement at a horizontal angle of up to 80 degrees, intelligently distinguishing between people, animals, and objects (e.g., a door moving in a draught). The devolo motion detector informs you by SMS or email of any movement detected, even if you are not at home. Your smart home is always well protected! Thanks to the infrared sensor, the motion detector works just as precisely at night as during the day. Its individually configurable brightness sensor also makes it a flexible pulse generator for a number of other home control components, such as lighting control.
