Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage and how do I power the T-Radar board?

The board is typically powered via the USB Type-C port, which accepts a standard 5V DC supply. The onboard voltage regulators provide the necessary 3.3V for the ESP32 and the radar sensor. Ensure your USB power source can deliver at least 500mA for stable operation, especially when the Wi-Fi radio is active.

How do I program the T-Radar board and what development environments are supported?

You can program the board using the Arduino IDE with the ESP32 board package installed, or using Espressif's official ESP-IDF framework via PlatformIO. Connect the board to your computer via the USB Type-C cable. The board should appear as a serial port. Select the correct ESP32 model (e.g., ESP32-S3) in your IDE and upload your sketch or firmware.

What is the difference between motion detection and stationary human presence detection with this mmWave sensor?

Motion detection identifies changes in the radar reflection pattern caused by movement. Stationary presence detection uses micro-Doppler and breathing/heartbeat signatures to identify a non-moving human. The 60GHz mmWave sensor in the T-Radar is sensitive enough to detect these subtle vital signs, allowing it to confirm if a person is still present in a room even when they are not moving.

Can I interface other sensors or components with the T-Radar board?

Yes, the board features a set of broken-out GPIO pins that support standard interfaces like I2C, SPI, UART, and analog input (ADC). You can connect additional sensors, displays, or actuators to expand your project's functionality. Refer to the official pinout diagram to identify the specific pin assignments for your chosen interface.
