Features and Specifications:
-
Radar Frequency: 5 GHz
- The HLK-LD012-5G operates in the 5 GHz frequency range, which allows for better accuracy and range when compared to sensors operating at lower frequencies such as 2.4 GHz.
- The higher frequency reduces the potential for interference from other common devices (e.g., Wi-Fi, Bluetooth), making the sensor more reliable in environments with a lot of RF signals.
-
Motion Detection:
- The sensor is highly sensitive to motion and movement within its detection range, making it ideal for use in motion-triggered systems such as smart lighting, security alarms, and automated doors.
-
Proximity Sensing:
- In addition to motion detection, the HLK-LD012-5G is also suitable for proximity sensing tasks, where it can detect the presence of objects or people within a certain range, enabling applications like occupancy sensing and smart appliances.
-
Output Type:
- The radar sensor generally provides digital output signals, such as a pulse or high/low signal, which can be easily interfaced with microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other embedded systems for further processing or control.
-
Detection Range:
- The HLK-LD012-5G sensor typically has a detection range that may vary depending on the specific model and environment but can generally detect objects at a distance of up to 5-10 meters (depending on the setup and configuration).
- The range may also vary based on the sensitivity settings and environmental factors (e.g., objects in the environment, walls, or other obstructions).
-
Power Supply:
- The radar sensor is usually powered by a 5V DC power supply, which is typical for most radar modules, and it may come with a power regulator or voltage converter as part of the kit.
-
Low Power Consumption:
- The HLK-LD012-5G is typically designed for low-power consumption, making it suitable for use in battery-operated devices, IoT applications, and wearables.
-
Compact and Easy to Integrate:
- The sensor module is compact and lightweight, allowing for easy integration into a variety of devices or systems. It's typically designed for embedded applications where space is limited.
-
Easy Testing and Debugging:
- The kit often includes an evaluation board or breakout board, which makes it easy to interface with a microcontroller or development board for testing and debugging purposes. This is ideal for prototyping and product development.
-
Applications:
- The Hi-Link HLK-LD012-5G radar sensor is ideal for motion sensing, object detection, proximity sensing, and distance measurement. It can be used in a wide variety of consumer electronics, IoT systems, and smart applications.
