Detect Presence Smartly — Wirelessly
The Aqara FP300 combines AI-enhanced dual sensing (PIR + 60 GHz mmWave) with Thread and Zigbee for reliable detection, comfort, and efficiency.
One compact sensor, five functions, infinite automations for lighting, climate, and security in Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings, Home Assistant, and more.
Why the FP300 Stands Out
Accurate Detection with AI: Combines PIR and 60 GHz mmWave technology for reliable recognition even when stationary. 120° angle, range up to 6 m. AI learns to distinguish human movement from curtains, fans, or pets, reducing false alarms.
Reliable Battery Life: Energy-efficient logic links PIR and radar for low power consumption. Two replaceable CR2450 batteries provide up to 3 years in Zigbee mode and 2 years in Thread mode①. Optionally turn off selected sensors to extend battery life even further②.
5-in-1 Multi-Sensor: Presence (PIR/mmWave), illumination, temperature, and humidity — broader environmental awareness, fewer devices, more subtle automations.
Protocol Flexibility: Thread for direct connection to Matter (Apple Home, Google Home, SmartThings, Home Assistant, etc.) — without an Aqara hub③. Zigbee unlocks exclusive Aqara features with classic hubs④.
Pro Settings in Aqara Home (Zigbee): Enable/disable individual sensors, tune range/sensitivity, absence timers, and reporting intervals — customize the FP300 for rooms and routines.
Easy Installation: Wireless design with a multi-axis bracket for wall, ceiling, corner, and magnetic surfaces. Instead of compromising, aim detection exactly where you need it.
Real-World Automations (IF/THEN)
Adaptive Lighting: IF presence is detected AND illuminance < 400 lux → THEN turn on the desk lamp.
- Devices: FP300 + Hub + LED Bulb T2
Energy-Saving Cooling: IF presence AND temperature > 28 °C → THEN turn on the air conditioning (cooling).
- Devices: FP300 + Hub M3 + Air Conditioner
Heating Saving: IF absence for 30 min → THEN set temperature to 10 °C.
- Devices: FP300 + Hub + Underfloor Heating Thermostat W500

Problems the FP300 Solves
- False alarms from "noise": AI continuously filters curtains, plants, or fans, increasing reliability.
- The myth of "mmWave must be wired": Energy-efficient dual logic + switchable modules allow for long-term wireless operation.
- Matter without worries: Thread without a hub or Zigbee for advanced Aqara features and backward compatibility.
Installation & Design
Wireless, compact (42×42×50 mm) and discreet. The multi-axis bracket supports mounting on the wall, ceiling, magnetic, and corner placement, allowing you to aim the sensing exactly where it makes sense — without aesthetic compromises.
