Your Smart Home Is Probably Missing This

A Smarter House just covered the world of mmWave presence sensors, and it is interesting to see how far the tech has come now that everything works across major platforms. The video breaks down a variety of hardware, ranging from the battery-powered meross MS605 and the Aqara FP300 to more specific gear like the Aqara M3 Hub and the W200 Smart Thermostat. It gets into the nitty-gritty of how these sensors actually detect breathing patterns to keep your lights on, which is a bit wild compared to the old-school motion detectors most of us are used to. There is a lot to dig through here if you are trying to figure out which sensor fits your specific room and setup.
