Hive Pet Friendly Motion Sensor

Our Pet Friendly Motion Sensor is smart enough to tell the difference between people and pets. It monitors your home and alerts you when there’s movement – but it won’t be triggered by pets under 36kg.

Hive Motion Sensor

Our Hive Motion Sensors let you know everything’s okay back home so you can relax wherever you are. Check if there’s been motion at home and get notifications the moment anything happens. Connect it with other Hive devices for even smarter control of your home. Like turning on a hall light when someone walks past.
