Anyone try this Wifi motion sensor?
Just read about this and was wondering if anyone has tried it. Pros/cons/notes? This seems pretty neat on the surface and I plan on trying it myself.

Yes, yes And YES!!
This is really great. Grab some boards with an external antenna, I guess the S3 variants are the best.
This guy is really active and thorough.
Home Assistant integration is a wip, right now the cyd is a topic.
Star, follow and try it!
Awesome. Good to hear good things about it. I have some spare ESPs laying around to try this on so I guess I know what I'm doing this weekend.
Well shit... There goes my weekend...
All I get after following the documentation, is a compiler error:
Edit: Managed to work around it. Now it actually detects movement! Just be aware this project looks like it's cooked up with a lot of AI assistance. There's a million pages of documentation, mostly convoluted and repetitive while telling slightly different things to do... And a compiler error is never a good first impression... It seems to work, though!
Now I have to find a few spare ESPs, which aren't already doing BLE or something, and see what kind of strain it puts on my wifi network.
