Ai-Thinker RD-01 24GHz Radar Module with Wi-Fi and BLE 5.0
₹518.02 incl. GST (₹439.00 + GST)
3-in-1 Ai-Thinker RD-01 module combining 24GHz radar, Wi-Fi, and BLE 5.0. Features S3KM111L radar chip, BL602 MCU, and wireless parameter configuration.
The Ai-Thinker RD-01 is a revolutionary “All-in-One” module that combines high-precision 24GHz Radar Sensing with powerful Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (BLE 5.0) connectivity. Unlike standard radar sensors that require an external microcontroller to send data, the RD-01 is a standalone IoT node capable of sensing, processing, and transmitting data directly to the cloud or your smart home network.
Dual-Core Powerhouse
The RD-01 is driven by two powerful chipsets:
-
Radar Core (S3KM111L): An FMCW radar SoC that detects human presence (static and moving) with high sensitivity.
-
Connectivity Core (BL602): A 32-bit RISC CPU that handles Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n) and Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 communications.
Wireless Configuration & Smart Control
Gone are the days of hard-coding parameters. The RD-01 allows for intelligent parameter adjustment via Bluetooth. You can wirelessly configure detection distance, sensitivity, and delay times directly from a mobile device or laptop, making installation and maintenance incredibly fast.
Complete IoT Integration
With support for WPA3 Security, Bluetooth Mesh, and Station + SoftAP modes, this module is ready to integrate into secure smart home ecosystems (Tuya, Home Assistant, etc.) right out of the box.
Key Features
-
3-in-1 Design: Integrates Radar, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth in a single SMD-12 package.
