The sensor i have let's you set zones which work width wise but not height. What i would like to do, if able, is mount the sensor waist height or a little higher and block the top and bottom of the sensor so i only have the middle 20° being used. Can this be done with foil or metal?

What about a regular PIR sensors? Google is showing me suggestions to put tape inside the lens of one if you want to narrow the beam.
