The latest generation of Acconeer’s radar sensors has the world’s lowest power consumption – less than 80 µW – when used for human presence detection.
Low Power Presence
Low Power & High Reliability
The sensors are today deployed in a diverse selection of industries around the world, ranging from automotive and industrial installations to consumer products and IoT solutions. Many of the end products are powered by battery and have high restrictions on power consumption. When configured smartly, these sensor solutions can reach a battery lifetime of up to 10 years.
Smart Presence
While Acconeer’s market leading radar sensors can easily fit on the tip of a finger, they are still able to detect distance, direction and motion of multiple objects up to 20 meters away as well as being accurate enough to even safely register a sleeping baby in a child seat.
Smart Access Systems With Radar
What is possible:
- Human presence detection up to 7m
- Multi-activity detection
- Distance, motion, direction of travel
- Configurable zones, variable distance settings
- Touchless button (trigger zones between 0-15 cm) enables removal of mechnics for buttons to reduce cost
