Meet MMW-3

Introducing MMW-3, a cutting-edge mmWave radar sensor designed for presence detection.

Unlike traditional infrared sensors, mmWave can detect human presence with remarkable accuracy, even if a person is stationary. This ensures that no presence goes unnoticed.

And best of all, the 60GHz radar can penetrate plasterboard, allowing MMW-3 to operate fully out of sight and out of mind.

Next-Generation Presence Detection 

Leveraging advanced millimetre-wave (mmWave) technology, MMW-3 delivers highly accurate presence detection.

Its unique capabilities allow it to adapt across key pillars of modern infrastructure - enhancing security, improving safety, increasing energy efficiency, and enabling greater convenience.

Enhanced Security:

Enhanced Security:

Unlike traditional infrared sensors, mmWave can detect human presence with remarkable accuracy, even differentiating between individuals who are stationary or moving.
Improved Safety:

Improved Safety:

MMW-3 can be used to monitor for abnormal periods of inactivity, automatically issuing alerts to prompt rapid intervention when assistance may be needed.
Energy Optimisation:

Energy Optimisation:

Enable intelligent control of lighting and HVAC systems by adjusting operation in real-time based on actual occupancy levels, reducing energy waste while maintaining comfort and efficiency.
Increased Convenience:

Increased Convenience:

With a minimum detection range of just 20 cm, MMW-3 can be configured to function as a non-contact switch, ideal for scenarios where hands-free operation is preferred for hygiene, accessibility, or ease of use.

Use MMW-3 for

  • Enhancing security in high-risk areas like prisons and government facilities
  • Enabling patient monitoring and improved care in healthcare settings

Paving the way for new applications

MMW-3 is uniquely suited for a range of specialised presence detection applications.

It can be hidden in walls or behind artworks in museums and galleries, alerting only if visitors get too close. With no cameras or microphones, it’s ideal for privacy-sensitive areas such as toilets or changing rooms. Beyond security and monitoring, MMW-3 can be used for energy saving in offices, intelligently controlling lighting and HVAC based on actual room usage.

Out of Sight, Out of Mind

Install MMW-3 completely out of view - concealed behind walls, ceilings, or even hidden behind artwork*. This enhances the overall aesthetic by eliminating visual clutter, delivering discreet, dependable security while remaining invisible.

* Detection distance may vary depending on the material density

Intruder lying in wait

No Place to Hide

MMW-3 surpasses traditional sensing technologies by detecting even the most subtle human motions, including breathing. This ensures absolutely no presence goes unnoticed, providing robust security even against an intruder lying in wait.

Black and White Options for MMW-3 mmWave sensor

Black or White

Available in sleek White and Black finishes, MMW-3 blends effortlessly into any setting. Whether modern or traditional, it complements your space without drawing unwanted attention.

MMW-3S Spot and MMW-3W Wide

Spot or Wide

MMW-3 Series includes two models - Spot (MMW-3S) and Wide (MMW-3W) - each engineered for precise adaptability in different application settings.

MMW-3S

Provides targeted, narrow-range detection perfect for confined areas like doorways or small rooms.

MMW-3W

Covers wider zones, making it ideal for open spaces such as offices and corridors.

MMW-3 Adjustable Detection

Adjustable detection distance

MMW-3 offers flexible detection range control, with adjustable sensing distances from 0.2 m to 3.5 m, configurable across 16 patterns. This allows for precise tuning of the detection area to suit specific spatial requirements, whether for close-range sensing at entry points or broader coverage in open areas.
