Gira presence detection

Gira presence detection

With Gira motion detectors, peace of mind can be switched on with ease. Depending on movement and ambient brightness, light turns on and off automatically as needed – or when someone enters your house or property without permission. Especially in low-traffic areas such as basements, garages, and remote parts of your garden, presence detectors can provide safety.

Light when it is needed: thanks to thermal detection, the Cube motion detector only switches on when people walk by.

Benefits of automatic presence detection

In addition to saving energy, motion detectors offer many advantages indoors and outdoors: 

  • No more searching for keys in the dark 

  • Automatic lighting deters unwanted visitors 

  • More orientation and safety at night 

  • Better hygiene in sanitary facilities, public stairwells, or underground car parks thanks to contactless switching 

For automatic light control, Gira offers a range of motion detectors: 

Gira Cube motion detector: sensor with light and thermal detection 

With its angular, modern design, the Gira Cube motion detector blends seamlessly into both existing buildings and contemporary architecture, available in pure white glossy or anthracite. For precise light control, it detects not only ambient brightness but also the thermal movement of people walking past. This ensures that lighting is only switched on when it is truly needed. The detection angle can be set to either 120 or 240 degrees.

A smart all-rounder: 360° presence and motion detector with Bluetooth

Mounted on the ceiling, the 360° presence and motion detector with Bluetooth covers the entire detection area. Programming and control are carried out via the Gira app. As a presence detector, it monitors areas such as workplaces with longer switch-on times, keeping the light on even with sporadic movement. The app also enables configuration of an energy-saving constant light control, which automatically adjusts lighting levels to daylight conditions – dimming when sufficient daylight is available or increasing brightness when it is darker. 

Motion detector 1.10 m for Gira One: smart light control for your home 

The motion detector 1.10 m for Gira One provides reliable motion detection and integrates seamlessly into modern living environments. Installed at a height of 1.10 m, it detects movements precisely and enables automated light control. The sensor sensitivity can be individually adjusted to meet the residents’ needs. With Gira One, you benefit from maximum comfort and energy efficiency in room lighting. Its discreet design blends harmoniously with a wide range of interior styles.

Individual light control: motion detectors in the Gira System 3000 

The motion detectors in the Gira System 3000 are available for two installation heights (1.10 m and 2.20 m), and with or without Bluetooth. With the new System 3000 motion detector 1.10 m Standard (with run-on time), you can flexibly set the run-on time from 10 seconds to 30 minutes, without relying on Bluetooth or an app. The light then switches off automatically if, for example, no further movement is detected for 10 minutes. 

Compact yet powerful: the Gira presence detector Mini Komfort for KNX 

With its flat, minimalist design, the Gira presence detector Mini for KNX is an excellent choice for architectural projects. Typically ceiling-mounted, it can be used both indoors and outdoors, and is available as a standard version and as a Komfort version with extended functionality. In addition to switching lights, the Komfort version features an integrated temperature sensor. This allows heating and ventilation to be controlled based on presence and demand via the Mini Komfort detector for KNX. 

Tailored to your needs: motion detectors with Bluetooth 

Compared to standard motion detectors, Bluetooth-enabled products offer additional practical benefits: 

  • Extended programmability: numerous functions and settings, such as brightness levels and run-on times, can be easily configured via the Gira app. 

  • Timer function: allows specific time periods to be set for selected applications – for example, keeping the hallway light dimmed overnight. 

  • Night light function: prevents glare at night by dimming the light automatically. 

  • Presence simulation: records and repeats switch-on and switch-off times from the previous day, offering effective protection against intruders when you are away. 

Even more possibilities – with KNX technology 

If your home is equipped with a KNX system, Gira offers even more options. In addition to automatic light control, presence detectors for KNX can activate entire light scenes, as well as heating, ventilation, air conditioning, or blinds – all triggered by simply entering or leaving a room, corridor, or staircase.
