Human presence sensors....

Does anyone have any suggestions for a 'directional' human presence sensor?
It needs only about 3-4M range but a 90 degree field of view would be ideal for corridor doorway detection.
I have seen some listed online but I believe that they have a 360 degree sense area and this would not be suitable for my application.

There are some new AI based radar nodes that can detect human presence even if a the body is not moving. They use an Serial protocol and should be simple tu use. You can setup alarms within several disctances. I'm still not sure if I want that kind of sensors in my house tbh. But it should be a one weekend project to get it up and running
Maybe I will mount one on my desk to control the lights. And one on the outside of my house, but I will not install many inside the house.

AI-based radar nodes sound like an exciting advancement, especially for security and smart home automation. The ability to detect human presence without movement could be useful for elderly care, energy efficiency, and security systems. Using a serial protocol makes integration straightforward, making it a feasible weekend project for those familiar with microcontrollers. However, privacy concerns are valid—just like with any smart home technology, balancing convenience with data security is key.
