A commercial property management company implemented our advanced PIR sensor technology to create an intelligent lighting system that enhances energy efficiency and improves user experience across multiple buildings.
Smart door locks are widely used in residential buildings, apartments, offices, hotels, and rental properties. Compared with traditional mechanical locks, smart locks integrate electronic control systems to enable password, card, fingerprint, or mobile-based access.
In many smart lock designs, PIR motion sensors from Senba Sensing are integrated to support human detection and automatic wake-up functions. These sensing components help improve user interaction while maintaining low standby power consumption, which is important for battery-powered systems.

A typical smart door lock system includes:
PIR motion sensor
Light sensor (optional, depending on design)
Main control unit (MCU)
Keypad, fingerprint, or display module
Lock actuator mechanism
Battery power management module
When a person approaches the door, the PIR sensor detects motion within its sensing range and sends a signal to the control unit. The system then exits sleep mode and activates the keypad, display, or fingerprint module.
In low-light environments, a light sensor can assist in controlling keypad or display backlighting to improve visibility while avoiding unnecessary energy consumption.
Senba Sensing PIR motion sensors are used in smart locks to:
Detect approaching users
Trigger automatic system wake-up
Activate keypad or display backlighting
Reduce overall power consumption by keeping the system in standby mode until motion is detected
Because smart locks are typically powered by batteries, low operating current is an important requirement. PIR sensors are suitable for this type of indoor detection application due to their stable performance and low power characteristics.
Ambient light sensing components are used in some smart lock designs to:
Control keypad or display illumination automatically
Activate backlighting only under low ambient light conditions
Improve user visibility at night
Help reduce unnecessary power usage during daytime
Smart door locks integrating sensing components from Senba Sensing are commonly used in:
Residential entrance doors
Apartment buildings
Office access control systems
Hotel room locks
Rental property access systems
Smart lock products using Senba Sensing sensing components typically feature:
Automatic wake-up upon human approach
Low standby power consumption
Compact internal integration
Stable indoor motion detection
Compatibility with battery-powered designs
By integrating PIR motion detection into smart lock systems, manufacturers can reduce standby energy consumption while maintaining responsive user interaction.
Sensing components from Senba Sensing are widely applied in smart lock designs due to their compact structure and suitability for indoor electronic security products.
