January 13, 2026 – Meross Brings Dual-Technology Presence Sensing to Matter Ecosystem
Meross has introduced the MS600 Smart Presence Sensor, a Matter-certified device that combines low-power millimeter-wave radar with PIR motion detection technology. The sensor is capable of detecting both motion and stationary presence, offering a significant advancement over traditional PIR-only motion sensors [citation:7].
Key Specifications:
- Dual detection: PIR sensor + 24 GHz mmWave radar
- Motion detection range: 12 meters
- Presence detection range: 6 meters radius
- 360° rotation and 180° tilt adjustable base
- Built-in ambient light sensor
- Matter certified for multi-platform compatibility
- Power: USB-C (5V, 1A)
- Operating temperature: -10°C to 45°C
The MS600 supports Matter, allowing seamless integration with Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Samsung SmartThings. Unlike traditional PIR sensors that only detect motion, the mmWave radar technology enables detection of stationary occupants by sensing micro-movements such as breathing [citation:7].
Key applications include lighting automation, security systems, HVAC control, and presence-based automation in garages, hotels, and smart buildings. The built-in light sensor further enhances automation capabilities, adapting lighting based on ambient conditions.
“The Meross MS600 stands out for its exceptional accuracy in detecting presence and motion,” the company states. “It not only detects motion but also the presence of the user, even when he or she does not make any movements.”
Availability: The Meross MS600 is available now through retailers.
