After much more research the real answer I believe is here:

I have found that William Kahl invented the infrared motion sensor for burglar alarms first and then he sent in an application for the infrared light switch motion sensor in 1985. There had been other motion sensor light switches but this specific infrared motion sensor (PIR) is the one that is most used today residentially and in companies as well.
No. They were not invented yet.
Louis Lumiere invented first talking motion picture.
lumiere brothers
Johann Kepler.
in 1890 he invented the camera
The first motion detector was invented by Russian Leon Theremin in the year 1920, but the first motion detectors used as a security device were developed in early 1950's by Samuel Bagno. The basis of these first detectors was the Doppler effect and ultrasonic waves application.
Motion detectors are: infrared detectors, ultrasonic, microwave, radiowave and... dogs.
technology that makes use of motion detectors
Motion detectors have had a massive impact on today's society. Motion detectors have made life easier for those who are very busy for example.
There are many levels of long range motion detectors, personal use and commercial use. Some motion detectors can detect movement up to 8-10 miles away. Some good brands for long range motion detectors are Honeywell and KNX.
Yes
Smoke detectors were invented in the year 1967. :P
Sir Zvince Catervuent. A French scientist, he never really liked his job!

The pendulum was invented by Italian scientist Galileo Galilei in the late 16th century. He used it to study the concept of time and motion.
Some cctv security cameras also have motion detectors. If you are looking for a security camera with this feature, you should check the description before you buy it.
