Ikea Tradfri motion sensor shelter

thingiverse

Ikea manufactures highly affordable IoT devices, specifically the Tradfri series, which are however only designed for indoor use. As a user who wants more versatility from these devices, I decided to design a protective shelter that allows me to utilize the indoor motion sensor outdoors. To further enhance this setup, I applied wood glue around the front plastic lens of the device in order to improve its sealing. My first version, or v1, was the result of my initial attempt at making this work. Although the device is not fixed in place, it appears that this does not pose a significant problem. My second version, or v2, is intended to be an improvement over v1 but has yet to be tested. For now, I recommend using v1 as it seems to function adequately.
