Smart Presence Detection
Tim’s Driver for the Everything Presence One sensor combines the Motion sensor and millimetre Wave sensor to produce a smart presence sensor which rapidly detects entry to a room and detect the continuing human presence in the space even when sitting still.
Smart Presence Logic combines the motion sensor and millimetre Wave radar sensor to produce a virtual presence sensor event stream which minimises false detection events.
Real-Time Response
A rapid response to someone entering a room is achieved via the use of a Server-Sent Event interface.
Five Additional Sensors
In addition to the Presence Sensor, the driver provides access to the two sensors that underlie the presence detection, namely the motion sensor and millimetre wave radar sensor.
In addition the driver provides details on three environmental sensors.
- Temperature
- Illuminance
- Humidity
Displays Device Status
Device sensor information is provided in the detailed View of the driver.
The driver also provides device status via on screen text field.
Device Settings
The driver supports a full range of device controls and management settings.
Automations
All sensors can be used in SmartThing automations.
E.g. Turn the lights when someone is present in the room and the Illuminance is below 50 lux.
E.g. Turn the heating off when no one is present in the room and the temperature is greater than 12 degrees C.
3. Everything Presence One
The Everything Presence One is a revolutionary new presence sensor for the smart home. It combines a millimetre-wave sensor and a motion sensor to derive human presence. It also contains an additional 3 environmental sensors: light illuminance, temperature and humidity.
