Hi I am pretty knew to Arduino (and making in general) I have basic electronics knowledge and intermediate programming skill.
I set myself a challenge to make a motion tracker similar to one from Aliens and would appreciate advice on how to go about it?
So far I have considered PIR but I am aware this only detects movement in a range and wont send/receive the position of movement, so then considered that alongside ultrasonic sensors to detect position once thermal movement established... but I dont know how to know how the ultrasonic would then determine the moving object as opposed to another static object in the area?? im a little lost.
If someone could suggest a better method or something? My electronics knowledge is beginner as I say, so there may be a module I am not aware of or know the terminology. Hate being a noob. I'm aware of the inaccuracy the device may have in general but I've seen motion trackers using 2 ultrasonics and wondered if that was the best method? Just to tell the difference between a body and a chair for example.
Thanks in advance and apologies if missing something obvious.
Tim
