Recipes using this device
Away Motion Camera Alert
Installs Home Assistant automations that watch for motion while the house is armed and send you a notification with the camera view attached. Add presence sensors to arm and disarm on their own, a siren to sound off, and lights to flash.
Motion Hallway Light
Installs a Home Assistant automation that turns a hallway or landing light on when motion is seen and off again once the space has been still for a grace period you set. Add a light sensor and it only runs after dark, add a presence sensor and it holds the light while someone lingers.
Presence Room Lighting
Installs a Home Assistant automation that keeps a room's lights on for as long as an mmWave presence sensor sees someone in it, and switches them off shortly after the room empties. Add a light sensor to run only after dark, and dimmable lights that come up softly.
Presence Thermostat Setback
Installs a Home Assistant automation that eases your thermostat into an energy-saving preset once everyone has left, and brings it back to a comfort preset the moment someone returns. Add extra occupancy sensors and any one of them counts as home.
