Overview

The LD2410B is a millimeter-wave radar sensor for human presence detection with enhanced Bluetooth-based configuration support. It maintains UART communication while offering wireless setup and tuning via BLE.

About LD2410B Human Presence Sensor

The LD2410B is an upgraded version of the popular LD2410 millimeter-wave radar sensor. It includes all the presence detection features of the original model-such as stationary and moving human detection using 24GHz radar technology-while adding integrated Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for wireless configuration. This eliminates the need for wired UART access during setup, simplifying installation and tuning. Like its predecessor, the LD2410B is ideal for smart home applications such as lighting automation, security, and HVAC systems. Learn more about the original sensor at LD2410.
