Human Detection

The C4001 outperforms traditional infrared or ultrasonic sensors by detecting both static and moving human presence. With strong anti-interference performance, it operates reliably regardless of ambient light, temperature fluctuations, or environmental noise—ideal for detecting seated, sleeping, or moving people.

Distance and Velocity Detection

Using Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) radar, the C4001 can measure distances up to 25 meters and detect motion speeds from 0.1 to 10 m/s. FMCW enables continuous distance monitoring and Doppler-based speed calculation, offering higher resolution and real-time tracking for dynamic environments.
