Third Reality has introduced the Motion Sensor R1, a device designed to improve motion detection in smart homes. This is a PIR based motion sensor, so uses passive infrared to detect motion. PIR sensors are known for their high accuracy, with the ability to detect even still occupants based on their breathing.
The R1 offers precise motion detection capabilities, remaining unaffected by heat or sunlight, which are common issues with traditional PIR sensors. This advancement reduces the occurrence of false alarms, providing a more reliable solution for homeowners seeking to upgrade their security systems.
The Motion Sensor R1 was recently presented at CES 2025, where it received positive reception for its design and performance. The device is noted for its versatility and ease of integration into existing smart home systems, offering users a practical option for enhancing home security measures.
Lisa, who is a busy mother, recently installed Third Reality’s motion sensor. After experiencing a near-accident with her child, she installed the sensor in her home outside the child’s bedroom to alert when the child left the room. The sensor’s adjustable sensitivity allowed her to customize the detection range, ensuring that alerts were triggered only when necessary. This feature provided her with peace of mind, as it required minimal maintenance and no complex installation due to its battery-powered design.
Similarly, Mark, a technology enthusiast, has incorporated the Motion Sensor R1 into his Home Assistant system. By utilizing its Over-The-Air (OTA) updates and customizable features, he was able to enhance his home automation setup. The sensor’s long battery life and reliable performance across various areas of his home allowed him to optimize energy usage and automate his lighting system effectively.
