##Introduction The Gravity: C4001 millimeter-wave presence sensor, operating at a wavelength signal of 24GHz, boasts a horizontal detection range of 100°, a presence detection range of 8 meters, and a motion detection and ranging range of 12 meters. It utilizes the Gravity interface (PH2.0) and supports I2C and UART communication methods, compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32 / ESP8266 development boards. Perfect for human presence detection, environmental monitoring, and real-time monitoring projects. Human detectionCompared to other types of human presence sensors, such as infrared sensors, the C4001 (12m) millimeter wave presence sensor has the advantage of detecting both static and moving objects. It also has a relatively strong anti-interference ability, making it less susceptible to factors such as temperature changes, variations in ambient light, and environmental noise. Whether a person is sitting, sleeping, or moving, the sensor can quickly and sensitively detect their presence.The differences between millimeter-wave presence sensor and infrared sensorDistance and velocity detectionThe C4001 (12m) millimeter wave presence sensor utilizes FMCW modulation for distance and speed measurement. It has a maximum detection range of 12 meters and a speed measurement range of 0.1 to 10 meters per second.FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) is a type of radar system based on frequency modulation of continuous wave signals. Unlike traditional pulse radar, FMCW radar continuously emits a series of continuous wave signals with gradually changing frequencies while simultaneously receiving the reflected signals. By analyzing the received signals, measurements of parameters such as distance, speed, and angle can be achieved.Compared to traditional pulse radar technology, FMCW radar can continuously measure the distance of an object. By utilizing the Doppler effect, it can also obtain information about the velocity of the target object. This makes FMCW radar suitable for applications that require tracking the movement of objects. Additionally, FMCW radar can achieve continuous frequency scanning, providing higher measurement resolution. Since it does not require waiting for the return of echo signals, FMCW radar is suitable for applications that require real-time monitoring and tracking of target objects. Detection Range of millimeter-wave human body sensorWhat is a millimeter-wave radar sensor?Millimeter-wave radar technology is a non-contact sensing technology used to detect objects and provide information about their distance, velocity, and angle (in the case of humans, for example). The signals emitted by millimeter-wave sensors fall within the high-frequency spectrum with wavelengths between 24GHz and 300GHz, also known as the millimeter (mm) range. Installation MethodThe millimeter-wave human body sensor is sensitive to the installation method, and improper installation can affect the performance and functionality of the sensor. The commonly used installation methods for this module include top installation, bottom installation, horizontal installation, and downward tilted installation.

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- baud
- Baud is the signalling rate of a serial connection, often used as the speed setting for UART communication. Matching the baud rate matters because both connected devices must use the same setting for readable data.
- ESP32
- ESP32 is a family of microcontroller modules with built-in wireless features such as Bluetooth and WiFi. Knowing this product uses an ESP32-based module helps explain how it provides wireless serial communication and firmware update features.
- FMCW
- Frequency-modulated continuous wave is a radar method that sends a changing radio signal and compares the reflection to estimate movement and distance. It matters for presence sensors because it can provide more detailed detection than a simple motion-only sensor.
- Gravity
- Gravity is DFRobot’s plug-in connector system for sensors, motors and modules, using standard cables to reduce loose jumper wiring. It matters because Gravity-compatible parts can connect directly to these ports, while non-Gravity parts may need adapters or manual wiring.
- I2C
- I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
- mmWave
- Short for millimetre wave, a high-frequency radio technology used here for radar-style sensing. It matters because mmWave sensors can detect very small movements, such as breathing, which helps them notice a person who is sitting still.
- Motion detection
- A camera feature that checks the image for changes that suggest something has moved. It matters because your project can use movement as a trigger instead of constantly saving or processing every frame.
- UART
- UART is a simple serial connection that sends data over separate transmit and receive wires, often labelled TX and RX. It matters because this module is designed to replace a wired UART cable with a wireless link while keeping the same serial data format.
