The Aqara Presence Sensor FP1E is designed to accurately detect human presence in rooms using millimeter-wave radar technology and advanced AI algorithms. It features functions such as spatial background learning, interference source identification, and sensitivity adaptation. It is basically a slimmed-down version of the Presence Sensor FP2 or a more advanced version of the Motion Sensor P1. **Specification** - Presence Sensor FP1E - Model: PS-S03D / PS-S03E - Wireless Protocols: Zigbee - Radar Operation Frequency: 60-61 GHz - Radar Maximum Output Power ≤ 20 dBm (Only applicable to the EU region) - Zigbee Operation Frequency: 2405-2480 MHz - Zigbee Maximum Output Power ≤ 13 dBm - Dimensions: 57 × 50 × 37 mm (2.24 × 1.97× 1.46 in.) - Operating Temperature: -10 °C ~ 40 °C (14 °F ~ 104 °F) - Operating Humidity: 0 ~ 95% RH, no condensation - Ports: USB-C - Input Power: 5 V⎓1 A **Features** - **High-Precision mmWave Sensor**: The FP1E Presence Sensor leverages mmWave radar technology to accurately detect even the smallest movements of stationary individuals. - **Enhanced Precision with AI**: Equipped with advanced AI learning technology, the FP1E sensor offers a seamless plug-and-play experience without complex setup. - **Zigbee 3.0 with Matter over Bridge Support**: Compatible with a wide array of Matter-compatible platforms. - **Capability to Monitor Movement and Stillness**: Can activate automated tasks based on detected movement or lack thereof. - **Flexible Installation Options**: Comes with magnetic and adhesive-backed brackets for easy installation on any surface. **Aqara Presence Sensor FP1E vs Presence Sensor FP2 vs Motion Sensor P1** **Unboxing / Design** The Aqara presence sensors have an unremarkable design. The FP1E is a bit smaller but thicker than the FP2, with the main difference being the integrated USB-A cable. **Set up / Connectivity** The set up is simple: use the provided USB Type-A power interface, press and hold the reset button, open the Aqara Home app, and select the Presence Sensor FP1E. **Tips for Optimal Use** - Face the sensor towards the front of human bodies for better detection. - Configure the detection range to exclude unnecessary areas. - Use “absence for a period” instead of instant “absence” to avoid frequent light switching. - Perform AI spatial learning if false detections occur. - Avoid installing near AC outlets, air purifiers, or fans. **Automations** Some example automations include energy-saving and reminders of prolonged sitting. The sensor supports a wide range of automation conditions. **Integration With Third-Party Smart Home Systems With Matter – Home Assistant** The FP1E can be integrated with third-party systems via a compatible Aqara Hub, providing limited automation options with Home Assistant. **Price and Alternative Options** The official RRP of the FP1E is not known, but the Chinese variant is available on eBay for over £80. The FP2 and P1 sensors are also available at different price points. **Verdict** The Aqara Presence Sensor FP1E offers a balance between the more advanced FP2 and basic P1 sensors. It is user-friendly and accurate, but the price difference should be considered. **Frequently Asked Questions** 1. What is the detection range of Presence Sensor FP1E? 2.
