Panda Boards are computers based on arm v 7 processor. One of the main advantage of using panda boards in different projects is there ease of integration in existing system. We have variety of different interfaces on these boards to connect to different systems using network connectivity or local I/O. One of those interfaces is General Purpose Input and Output (GPIO) port which we will be using GPIO port to connect a motion sensor to panda board.

'''Motion Sensor'''
We are using zilog motion detection module as motion sensor. The good thing about this module is that it includes a built in micro controller with application software running on it.
This Micro Controller Unit (MCU) along with its application software is not only meant for providing standard interfaces to existing computer system but also gives more control to programmers to control this module from their own program/logic.
