Sensor fusion for presence detection combines mmWave radar data with WiFi CSI to enhance accuracy and reliability. This integration allows the system to deliver more precise contactless health vitals and distance sensing than using radar alone.

Yes, ESP32-C6 supports mmWave radar sensors for heart rate and breathing monitoring. Specifically, it works with the Seeed MR60BHA2 60 GHz and HLK-LD2410 24 GHz sensors to enable contactless vitals and presence detection.

To run mmWave radar presence detection on ESP32, you need an ESP32-C6 board, a Seeed MR60BHA2 or HLK-LD2410 sensor, and ESP32 firmware with mmWave fusion support. A host-side fusion bridge script is also required to process the data.

To set up ESP32 firmware for mmWave sensor fusion, you must flash the ESP32-C6 with firmware supporting mmWave fusion and execute the host-side mmwave_fusion_bridge.py script. This configuration enables the collection of 48-byte fused vitals records.

Yes, you can use mmWave radar for contactless health monitoring in smart home environments. The sensor fusion approach supports heart rate, breathing rate, and presence detection without requiring line-of-sight or wearable devices.

Limitations of using mmWave radar for health vitals detection include the strict dependency on specific ESP32-C6 hardware and compatible MR60BHA2 or LD2410 sensors. The system also requires both ESP32 firmware and a host-side fusion bridge script to function.
