Motion detector in Hidco (the round one) |
" The "motion sensing" feature on most lights (and security systems) is a passive system that detects infrared energy. These sensors are therefore known as PIR (passive infrared) detectors or pyroelectricsensors. In order to make a sensor that can detect a human being, you need to make the sensor sensitive to the temperature of a human body. Humans, having a skin temperature of about 93 degrees F, radiate infrared energy with a wavelength between 9 and 10 micrometers. Therefore, the sensors are typically sensitive in the range of 8 to 12 micrometers.
The devices themselves are simple electronic components not unlike a photosensor. The infrared light bumps electrons off a substrate, and these electrons can be detected and amplified into a signal.
You have probably noticed that your light is sensitive to motion, but not to a person who is standing still. That's because the electronics package attached to the sensor is looking for a fairly rapid change in the amount of infrared energy it is seeing. When a person walks by, the amount of infrared energy in the field of view changes rapidly and is easily detected "

A new bank branch opened at Hidco Bhavan compound today. This is a result of sustained efforts of CFO Samaresh Mitra. An earlier security building was converted into a two storied building and modifications made to make the ground floor suitable for banking. The ATM counter will soon be opened.

The floor area ratio(FAR) in
ReplyDeleteNew york Downtown-10-15
Hong-kong-12
Los Angeles CBD – 13
Chicago, CBD 12
San Francisco – 9
Bankok - 8
As mentioned in the article the FAR in new town CBD is 3.5. Is it true?
Low FAR reduces the traffic on the road. Some green space
may be entertained if we can fixed low FAR but minimum building height.
Is there any regulation so that the upcoming building in CBD may have
some minimum height (say 80m).
In some plots the FAR may be relaxed to 10-12 so that few highrise may shape
the skyline from Eco park.
This nice post i like it than another best motion sensor switch and motion Detector.Energy Saving Switch|Occupancy Sensor|Motion Sensor Light
