If your in a no freeze climate you can attach a 4 dollar sprinkle and an electric valve to a motion detector -- that's what I did this summer.
They come anywhere near and that sprinkler pulses madly, and like anyone else, nobody likes to get wet.
Only thing that's worked for me.
Rainbird makes a $15 valve but it's dc, so here's what you need --
motion detector light and a bulb 120 screw in socket
12v dc power supply valve sprinkler.
No need to make anything:
