Those are pretty vague requirements. You could use a PIR sensor to sense movement of warm-blooded mammals at that distance. A LIDAR system could detect any sizeable object moving in that range. You could set up break-beam sensors around a perimeter and detect when any object passes through them. A camera with image processing software could be programmed for face detection. Any of the above could work with a Pi.
