Smart home enthusiasts, rejoice! Meross, a leader in affordable yet high-performance smart home tech, has launched its cordless radar presence sensor with Matter-over-Thread support. This innovation offers seamless, wire-free detection while aligning with the latest smart home standards.
Why Meross’ Radar Sensor Is a Game-Changer
Presence sensors are vital for energy efficiency, security, and convenience. Unlike traditional PIR sensors, which fail to detect static presence, radar sensors track even micro-movements (like breathing). Meross’ sensor elevates this with battery power and Matter-over-Thread, ensuring broad compatibility and hassle-free installation.
