Product description: Human Micro-Motion Detection - mmWave 24 GHz sensor - S3KM1110 - Waveshare 26536
An innovative radar sensor using FMCW technology and operating in the 24 GHz band, designed to identify human movement, standing and micro-movements . Combining radar signal processing with accurate detection and ranging algorithms, it allows you to configure sensitivity for each range independently. Perfect for applications such as home automation, security systems, health monitoring and smart lighting . The sensor uses the S3KM1110 module with built-in efficient 24 GHz 1T1R antennas. Thanks to the UART communication interface and GPIO pins , it can be easily integrated with various platforms such as Raspberry Pi, RP2040, Arduino, ESP32 and Jetson Nano, which increases its versatility.
What does FMCW stand for?
The abbreviation FMCW stands for Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave radar. It is a type of radar sensor that emits a continuous transmission signal and can change its operating frequency during measurement. What does this mean in practice? The transmitted signal is frequency modulated, making it possible to measure both the distance and the speed of moving objects. FMCW radars are used wherever it is necessary to measure very small distances and high measurement reliability is required.
