This kit solves that by building a smart floodlight controller that activates only when motion is detected and only after dark. The HC-SR501 PIR sensor triggers a 12V relay for exactly two minutes, while a separate LDR circuit blocks all triggers in daylight, so the light never turns on during the day. It is a complete, field-ready security automation project that you can install outside a home, garage, or school entrance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fully functional PIR-based outdoor floodlight timer that wires directly to a 12V floodlight. You will assemble the sensor board, program an Arduino Uno to manage the 2-minute timer logic, and integrate a daylight-blocking LDR to save energy.
