What is your experiences - which is the best indoor motion sensor for Homey so far? Likely with lumen-detection.

Don’t have any problems with the idle mode. Haven’t noticed it yet. I do have some issues with the zone activity… doesn’t work for me. Having the lights turn off when no activity for 5 mins means the lights won’t turn on again if someone has manually turned off the lights, so i’m not using that anym…

Can’t say I have experienced anything similar, but please open an own topic, maybe someone can help figure out what is wrong.

I’ve got some aqara’s and hue motion sensors, and I’m trying to find a way to make them work properly. I have some flows with timers/countdown but it’s not there yet. The problem is that the sensors need new motion to turn the hourglass but when I’m sitting still it doesn’t register and you have to…

Yes, the Aqara Lumi Human Sensor should be the solution. I guess it’s a kind of presence sensor, it’s not the same like a motion sensor. Another presence sensor I know is the HmIP-SPI from Homematic. But therefore you need an Homematic Gateway like CCU2, CCU3 or RaspberryMatic in addition. The Home…

Thanks, I’d like a sensor that works directly with Homey, not another bridge :wink: but the xiaomi sensor is B2B so I dont think it will be available for purchase anytime soon? The fact that its build in the ceiling also causes some problems. Hopefully there will be other sensors in the future that …

A different system based on thermal. I like the idea but not the design, take a look: [image] [APP][Pro] Hiome - (almost) perfect occupancy sensors Apps Hello, I’d like to introduce You to some very interesting occupancy sensors - Hiome and my app which provides Hiome su…

[image] DirkG: Yes, the Aqara Lumi Human Sensor should be the solution. I guess it’s a kind of presence sensor, it’s not the same like a motion sensor. No, it’s still a motion sensor, but high-precision. I use such sensors, but “classic” ones (in my alarm-system, it’s not smart-home related),…

[image] Otter: Thanks, I’d like a sensor that works directly with Homey, not another bridge :wink: Such presence systems (based on calculations of people moving between rooms or zones) always require a central unit, which makes all the calculations (as data from all the sensors are needed to …

[image] Joka: A different system based on thermal. I like the idea but not the design, take a look: You can always use a recessed sensor instead of standard one to build it into other objects (ceiling, door frame, etc), so the sensor becomes invisible.

Thanks didn’t know about this. Do they need to be on every door? Does it just ‘count you in the room’ or does it detect you all the way. Btw I don’t want to wire my house with usb :wink:
