I've connected this device to both Hubitat and SmartThings. There isn't a specific edge driver for this device in SmartThings, so control over the device is limited. I was able to pair it using w35l3y and iquis edge drivers as a motion device. The device does do a decent job of detecting "occupancy" in spite of the generic driver. In fact, it works well enough that I would use it over a PIR sensor for establishing room occupancy if you have access to an AC power source. Illuminance is grossly inaccurate and unusable. You also don't have as much control over the device as you do with the Hubitat drivers, and I've had to use higher fade times to avoid triggering a false negative.This device is even better in Hubitat where there is access to far more control. You can set distance and sensitivity settings for static, small movements, and motion. "Small move" is really just someone lying still but still breathing. Unfortunately, static and small movement detection requires some improvement. I was able to get the device to trigger both motions during my testing, but I did encounter a few false negatives and false positives where it initially and correctly detected a motionless person breathing as "small move". If I disabled small movement detection it would then provide a status of "static" for that motionless person. The issue is that sometimes it would go from static/small move to inactive or moving in spite of there being no change in movement by the actual person. As a result, I would not rely on the device for the type of motion it sensed, but rather that motion or a person is present. In my testing it seemed to reliably detect motion as small as an inch, and it's range of detection was 180 degrees both vertically and horizontally. I also found that it was able to establish reliable detection from approximately 15' away. It's possible that might improve with better line of sight placement, but I wanted to test the devices in discreet locations where they would actually get everyday use.In addition to sensitivity and distance control, you also can turn the LED on/off, set the presence "keep time", and correct the illuminance value. I found the illuminance to be dramatically high and was able to apply a correction factor to get a relatively accurate reading based on my own visual assessment and a measurement from my phone.Overall, I am quite pleased with the device and plan to buy more of these for use in places where I can get good placement and still have access to power. I still like PIR sensors in situations where I can't easily hide a power cord or just need simple motion detection like in a hallway. Otherwise, these are better if you can work around the limitations.

This was advertised as a 24ghz sensor. It's not, it's a 5.8ghz that drowns my entire wifi network in noise. Will be replacing, but unfortunately I can't think of anywhere I'd rather have presence sensing over good Wi-Fi, so this is just more e waste.Use case: Turn on lights in a room when someone sits down to watch TV, but ignore motion in the rest of the room. This has proven to be rather finicky. I'll dial in settings and they'll work well for a short while, then quit responding. Tweak the settings some more and I'm back in business for a few more days. Getting the sensor oriented to exclude portions of the room was easy, but it seems to lose contact with my Home Assistant server regularly.

I recently tried the Human Presence Sensor, Tuya Zigbee Millimeter Radar Wave Presence Detection Sensor, and while it has some promising features, it has a few notable shortcomings. Here’s my experience:Variable Sensitivity: The sensor’s sensitivity is inconsistent. It often feels either too sensitive or not sensitive enough, depending on the environment and how it's mounted. This variability makes it challenging to rely on it for precise presence detection.Challenges with Automation: Creating effective automations has been difficult. Unlike some other devices, like the Aqara sensor, this one lacks a detailed map or adjustable settings to fine-tune its detection zones. This limitation complicates setting up reliable automations based on presence.Home Assistant Integration: The sensor does not natively expose all entities in Home Assistant. This lack of full integration limits its functionality and makes it harder to use within the Home Assistant ecosystem. It’s frustrating not to have access to all the data and control options that are available with other sensors.Build Quality: The build quality is decent, and the sensor feels solid. Installation is straightforward, and it seems durable enough for regular use. However, the device’s performance in terms of sensitivity and integration is where it struggles.Documentation and Support: The included documentation is minimal, and support for customizing the sensor’s settings could be better. More detailed guidance on configuring the sensor and troubleshooting integration issues would be beneficial.Overall Thoughts:The Human Presence Sensor offers good integration with Zigbee systems and has solid build quality, but its inconsistent sensitivity and challenges with Home Assistant integration are significant drawbacks. If you need a sensor with reliable presence detection, easy automation setup, and full Home Assistant compatibility, you might want to explore other options or be prepared for some extra configuration with this one.

Based on reviews of all the Zigbee MmWave Presence sensors, I was expecting this to be a challenge since I use Zigbee Home Automation in Home Assistant. I was thoroughly expecting to have to switch over to Zigbee2MQTT or something like that. Just to cover my bases, I ordered 3 different sensors with plans to order more of the best one.All three were instantly detected by ZHA! I like this one for applications where I'll stick it to a wall and need to aim it. Maybe in my stairway to power on the basement lights. Powered it up, told ZHA to look for new device and BAM! There it was ready to go.

This presence detection device looks really nice and the size is awesome, but unfortunatly it only picks up the first motion event. After that it doesn't clear until unplugging and powering again.Testing completed in Home Assistant, Hubitat and Smartthings.

I set this up with my hubitat hub. It works fine. The only option that I'm missing is the ability to set zones.
