XIAO 60GHz mmWave Human Fall Detection Sensor (MR60FDA2) - Advanced Privacy-Preserving Safety Monitoring
Ensure safety and peace of mind with the revolutionary XIAO 60GHz mmWave Human Fall Detection Sensor (MR60FDA2) . This compact and powerful sensor leverages cutting-edge 60GHz millimeter-wave radar technology to provide highly accurate human fall detection without the use of cameras, safeguarding privacy in sensitive environments like bathrooms and bedrooms. Ideal for elderly care, lone worker safety, and smart home automation , the MR60FDA2 is your discreet guardian.
Unlike traditional PIR sensors or cameras, this mmWave radar sensor offers robust performance, unaffected by steam, dust, smoke, or lighting conditions. It can even detect presence through light materials like clothing or thin partitions. Its sophisticated algorithm is finely tuned to recognize the specific motion patterns associated with a human fall, minimizing false alarms and ensuring timely alerts.
Beyond critical fall detection , this versatile module also excels at human presence detection and motion sensing , making it a multi-functional component for your IoT projects. Integrated into the popular Seeed Studio XIAO ecosystem, it boasts a small form factor for easy integration into your custom enclosures and devices. Simply connect it via UART to your preferred microcontroller (like an ESP32, Raspberry Pi, or another XIAO board) to receive alerts and trigger actions.
Feature 1: Advanced mmWave Sensing for Fall and Human Presence Detection
The MR60FDA2 60GHz mmWave Sensor Module specializes in fall detection with pre-set algorithms and includes human static presence functionality.
- Human Static Presence: Effective up to 6 meters.
- Fall Detection: Detects within a 3x3x3 meter range, with a horizontal Field of View (FoV) of 120° and a vertical FoV of 100°.
*The above parameters have been tested in the empty deployment environments.
Feature 2: Powered by ESP32 & ESPHome & No-Code Integration with Home Assistant
The kit features a Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32C6 with pre-flashed ESPHome firmware, enabling seamless plug-and-play integration with Home Assistant . Configure the device in ESPHome, and no-code setup for Home Assistant in 1-2 minutes. Thanks to the integration, you can customize detection zones and access analytics to pinpoint target locations efficiently from Home Assistant.
Feature 3: Ambient Light Sensing for R esponsive Automation
The mmWave sensor module includes a BH1750 light sensor, offering precise ambient light detection from 1 to 65,535 lux, with adjustable measurements up to 100,000 lux. Supported by ESPHome and Arduino IDE , it allows you to collect ambient light readings as frequently as every second, enhancing your automation's responsiveness to environmental changes.
Feature 4: Customizable Interaction
This 60GHz mmWave Sensor Module is equipped with a WS2812 RGB LED, allowing for DIY customization of the indicator light.
Feature 5: Extended Sensing or Automation with Grove
We've added one additional Grove Connector to the mmWave Module for easy expansion with your own Grove sensors and actuators (e.g., PIR and Relay). Choose from over 300 compatible Grove Modules!
Feature 6: Open Source 3D Printed Enclosure
To simplify deployment, we offer a 3D printed enclosure available for free download , providing a starting point to customize your casing design.
