Motion & Activity Sensors

Reliable, scalable motion and activity sensor solutions that enhance monitoring, automation, and operational safety across industries.

Overview

Motion and activity sensors are essential tools for automating, monitoring, and safeguarding physical environments. These technologies detect presence, movement patterns, vibrations, and occupancy changes to drive real-time responses or collect actionable data. Whether used in smart factories, warehouses, commercial buildings, or infrastructure projects, they contribute to enhanced safety, efficiency, and predictive decision-making.

At IoTTechExperts, we provide motion and activity sensor solutions built to meet the diverse demands of industrial, commercial, and infrastructure-based environments. We specialize in helping B2B clients across North America achieve better operational control and smarter asset utilization. Our systems are backed by years of research, rigorous testing, and support from a network of trusted partners and manufacturers.

Case Studies

U.S. Case Study 1: Food Production Facility – Ohio

A food packaging plant in Ohio deployed IoTTechExperts’s PIR and vibration sensors to optimize its cold storage facility. By integrating motion sensing into its automated lighting and refrigeration controls, the plant achieved a 22% reduction in energy costs within six months. The sensor data also supported predictive maintenance of refrigeration compressors, improving uptime.

U.S. Case Study 2: Distribution Center – Texas

At a logistics hub in Texas, IoTTechExperts implemented motion sensors on conveyor belts and loading docks. The sensors tracked asset movement and flagged irregular activity. This helped the client reduce equipment idle time by 30%, identify safety risks in high-traffic zones, and automate night time lighting with occupancy-based triggers.

Canadian Case Study: Assisted Living Facility – British Columbia

A Canadian healthcare provider partnered with IoTTechExperts to deploy wearable activity sensors for fall detection and motion tracking in an assisted living complex. The system immediately alerted caregivers of irregular movement patterns. Within weeks, incident response time dropped by 40%, while patient safety scores improved in compliance with CSA standards.
