Wireless Sensor Networks for surveillance systems in home, office, or factory environment require correct tracking of intruders. For such systems, passive infrared motion sensors (PIR sensors) are ideal because they do not require any signal or devices on the object to be tracked and they can work in dark environment as well. This paper first analyzes the performance and the applicability of the PIR sensors for security systems. Then, we propose a region-based human tracking algorithm with actual implementation and experiment in real environment. From the experiments, we show that the human tracking algorithm based on the PIR sensors performs very well with proper sensor deployment.
