      I have a broad frame and a quite small PIR sensor (this one, pictures of mirror here).

      Currently it’ hanging behind the frame and is seeable, but I want to 3D-print a small mount, to screw it to the frame, so it’s not visible and measure IR in the area of your feet when you pass the mirror

      So it’s possible to use a PIR sensor which is not visible directly when you have a broad frame

              @elleclouds - If I understand you properly, then this is what you’re looking for: Motion Detection with RaspiCam Non-Module Version
