By Aarti Dhapte , 01 December, 2022
In April 2022, Aqara, a China-based computer, and electronics manufacturing company announced the launch of new motion sensors P1. The new motion sensor is an updated version of the original Agara motion sensor. The motion sensor has a battery life of five years and can detect movements up to seven meters away. The sensor has built-in light sensors, enabling users to control smart home lights precisely.
The P1 Sensor is available through Amazon.com in North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific regions. The sensor is compatible with major smart home ecosystems, including Amazon Alexa and Apple HomeKit. Due to its inherent integration in most smart home automation, the motion sensor has grown in popularity among users of smart homes. The P1 sensor can automate tasks such as opening sunshades, turning on lights, and controlling the TV. Moreover, to automate most routine tasks, save energy and extend the life of the lights, users could set the hallway lights only to turn on when motion is sensed and it is dark outside.
The sensor is based on Zigbee 3.0 protocol providing quicker reaction time, better compatibility, and more dependency enabling consumers more flexibility with the sensors. The sensor also allows customized detection of sensitivity levels from high to medium to low to reduce the chances of false alarms. The sensor has A field of view (FoV) of 170° for up to 2 meters and 150° for up to 7 meters. To celebrate the launch Aqara is offering a 10% discount on the Amazon website, the products are already available in the U.S., Canada, Germany, and France, with pricing starting at USD 24.99.Walking, Data Collected at 50HZ
