Ai-Thinker Rd 04 10G Human Body Motion Sensor
The Rd-04 is a motion sensing module designed based on the X-band radar chip XBR818, with a central frequency of 10.525 GHz. The module employs a fixed-frequency, directional transmission and reception antenna design (1T1R) and integrates functionalities such as intermediate frequency demodulation, signal amplification, and digital processing. It supports delay configuration and adjustable sensing range.
The Rd-04 features non-penetrating detection (does not sense through walls), excellent anti-interference capabilities, compact size, superior suppression of clutter and higher harmonics, as well as high stability and consistency. In pulse-powered mode, the module achieves ultra-low power consumption at the microampere level, making it ideal for cost-sensitive and low-power application scenarios.

Comparison
Comparison Items | Radar Human Presence Sensor | Infrared (PIR) Human Sensor |
---|---|---|
Sensing Principle | Based on the Doppler radar sensing principle (active detection) | Based on the pyroelectric infrared sensing principle (passive radiation) |
Motion Sensing Sensitivity | Capable of detecting human presence, slight movements, and motion states | Only capable of detecting close-range slight movements and motion of humans |
Sensing Distance | Different sensing distances can be precisely set | Only a general range can be sensed |
Impact of Environmental Temperature | Not affected by changes in environmental temperature | Sensitivity decreases when the environmental temperature rises close to the human body temperature |
Application Environment | Not disturbed by heat sources, light sources, and airflows | Easily disturbed by heat sources, light sources, and airflows |
Penetration Ability | Capable of penetrating insulating materials such as fabric, plastic, and glass | Only capable of penetrating some transparent plastics |
