Aqara Spatial Multi-Sensor FP400 Kit

Aqara Spatial Multi-Sensor FP400 Kit | Advanced 60GHz mmWave Presence Sensor with 10-Person Zone Tracking

Upgrade your smart home with the Aqara Spatial Multi-Sensor FP400 Kit, available from Aqara specialist slimhuisje.nl. This revolutionary presence sensor uses 60GHz mmWave radar technology to detect human presence with pinpoint accuracy, even if you are sitting perfectly still. Unlike traditional passive infrared (PIR) sensors, the FP400 goes beyond simple motion, offering full spatial perception without the need for a privacy-sensitive camera.

10-Person Tracking & FP400 vs. FP300 Difference

With the FP400, you can divide a room into up to 8 separate zones using a precise 0.5-meter grid and simultaneously track the real-time position of up to 10 people. Compared to the more compact Aqara FP300 (which is battery-powered, has a shorter detection range of up to 6 meters, and focuses on presence detection in a single room), the FP400 is specifically designed for larger, multi-functional spaces up to 8 × 10 meters. Thanks to constant power via USB-C and an ultra-wide viewing angle of 120° horizontal and 100° vertical, you can effortlessly control multiple scenes in one room, such as the reading nook, the lounge area, and the kitchen island. All this without delay or light failure.

AI Interference Filter, IPX5 & Dual Protocol (Thread & Zigbee)

False alarms caused by swaying curtains, rotating fans, pets, or robot vacuum cleaners are a thing of the past. The built-in AI algorithm meticulously filters out non-human movements and independently learns the environmental background. Furthermore, the casing is IPX5 splash-proof, making the sensor perfectly suitable for damp areas such as bathrooms or kitchens. The FP400 supports both Matter over Thread and Zigbee 3.0, allowing you to easily choose the communication protocol that best suits your smart home infrastructure in the Aqara Home app.

Ecosystems & Compatibility

• Home Assistant: Full local integration via Matter over Thread (with a Thread Border Router) or via Zigbee with ZHA / Zigbee2MQTT using a Zigbee USB controller. All 8 custom zones and the integrated light sensor are presented as separate entities in Home Assistant.
• Homey Pro: Works seamlessly with Homey Pro via the official Aqara app via Zigbee or directly via Matter over Thread. Use zone presence and ambient light (lux) directly in your Homey Flows.
• SmartThings: Can be directly linked as a Matter device via Matter over Thread or via the Aqara Matter Hub bridging function. Presence and light sensor data are directly synchronized within the Samsung SmartThings ecosystem.
• Tuya / Smart Life: Integrates via Matter over Thread as a universal presence sensor and ambient light sensor, or via cloud-to-cloud linking when the FP400 is connected to a supported Matter controller.

Pro-Tip from slimhuisje.nl: During the first installation in the Aqara Home app, perform the 'AI spatial learning function' while the room is empty. This teaches the radar to ignore reflections from glass, mirrors, and large metal surfaces, which 100% prevents ghost reports and false triggers when sitting still.

Functionalities & Physical Actions

• 60GHz mmWave Radar: Continuously accurate presence detection based on micro-respiration signals.
• Multi-Target Tracking: Simultaneous real-time position determination of up to 10 people in the detection area.
• 8 Custom Zones: Create 8 independent detection zones on a 0.5m grid surface for zone-specific automations.
• Built-in Light Sensor: Real-time measurement of ambient light intensity (lux) for light-controlled scenes.
• AI Person Recognition: Smart filtering of pets, robot vacuum cleaners, and mechanical ventilation.
• Direction and Distance Detection: Detects approaching, moving away, entering from left or right, and departing.
• IPX5 Splash-proof: Safe for mounting in damp environments such as bathrooms and kitchens.
• Flexible Mounting: Supports wall, corner, and ceiling mounting with the included magnetic bracket.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I mount the Aqara FP400 for the best detection results?

For wall or corner mounting, a height of 1.5 to 2 meters is recommended, aimed at the chest height of sitting or standing individuals. Corner mounting makes optimal use of the 120° viewing angle and prevents blind spots. For ceiling mounting, the ideal height is 3 to 4 meters.

Does the Aqara FP400 run on batteries like the FP300?

No, the FP400 requires continuous power via the included USB-C cable (5V 1A). Unlike the battery-powered Aqara FP300, this constant power supply allows it to continuously track 10 people in 8 zones with a range of up to 8 × 10 meters without battery drain.

Is the FP400 compatible with Home Assistant and Homey Pro?

Yes, the FP400 can be integrated directly with Home Assistant and Homey Pro via Zigbee (with ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT) or via Matter over Thread. This makes all defined zones and the ambient light intensity available as separate sensors.

Do I need a hub or gateway to use the FP400?

To use full functionality (such as setting the 8 zones and AI settings), first set up the sensor via the Aqara Home app with an Aqara Hub or Matter controller. Then, you can share the device with other platforms via a Matter pairing code. For direct Matter over Thread pairing, a supported Thread Border Router is required.

Can I choose between Zigbee and Matter over Thread?

Yes, the protocol can be adjusted in the Aqara Home app via a firmware and settings switch. This allows you to flexibly switch between a Zigbee network or a Matter over Thread infrastructure depending on your smart home installation.
