The motion detector is a multipurpose redstone output. You can use it to trigger automatic doors, traps, lights, just about anything. There are two different types of MotionDetector: one created with wood that triggers when any living creature is nearby, and one created with more stone that only triggers when the player is nearby. You can change the range of the MotionDetector by right clicking it.
