Aqara FP2 Presence Sensor – mmWave Motion, Zone Detection & Fall Alerts (HomeKit, Alexa, Google, HA)

Meet the Aqara FP2 Presence Sensor, a radar-based smart motion sensor designed to map activity in living spaces with privacy in mind. It operates over 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi and is known for zone-based detection, multi-person awareness, and optional fall alerts. It works with HomeKit, Alexa, Google Home, and Home Assistant, often without a dedicated hub.

In daily life, imagine placing zones across a living room, bedroom, desk, or hallway and linking them to specific automations. When a zone detects presence, you might trigger lights, climate adjustments, or notifications for family members. The FP2 emphasizes privacy—there is no camera, and you can fine‑tune interference areas to ignore curtains, plants, or pets.

Zone-based detection at a glance

The FP2 uses millimeter-wave radar to monitor activity over up to 40 square meters (about 430 square feet) and supports up to 30 customizable zones. It can detect up to five people at once and can trigger distinct automations for each zone.

• Detect zones for sofa, bed, desk, entryway, and more
• Build personalized automations for different occupants

Privacy-first motion sensing

With no camera and a built-in privacy filter, you control what counts as human presence. The FP2 can exclude objects such as plants or curtains and filter out pets or fan movement to improve relevance.

• No video data collected
• Local processing of automations

Compatibility and offline automation

The FP2 appears as multiple sensors in HomeKit, Alexa, Google Home, and Home Assistant. It works with 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi and can run automations locally, including scenarios that function even with internet outages.

Practical uses and ongoing care

Built for everyday life, FP2 supports elder care routines, sleep‑related automations, and routine wake‑up scenes. A built‑in light sensor adds opportunities for lighting automations that react to ambient light levels.

What to know before you install

Power is supplied by a 5V⎓1A adapter (not included). The recommended router distance is within a few meters with minimal obstacles. For fall detection, ceiling mounting is required and alerts are sent via the companion app. IPX5 water resistance makes it suitable for humid spaces.
