Claim 0:
1. An adjustable spherical motion sensor housing mounted on an outdoor security light canopy, comprising:
a spherical shroud, the spherical shroud having a lens opening;
a lens covering the lens opening of the spherical shroud;
a supporting cup retained by the outdoor security light canopy;
a motion detection unit mounted within the spherical shroud, wherein the adjustable spherical motion sensor housing is mounted on the outdoor security light canopy by the supporting cup, the spherical shroud having a first interfacing tab attached thereto, and the supporting cup having a first gear rack, the first gear rack including a plurality of first interfacing notches configured to mate with the first interfacing tab to allow the first interfacing tab to move along the first gear rack to allow a first axis adjustment of the adjustable spherical motion sensor housing; and
a control circuit, the control circuit configured to process input from one or more electronic components, wherein the control circuit modifies a sensitivity gain of the motion detection unit in response to an input indicating rotational movement of the adjustable spherical motion sensor housing.
