Meross Smart Presence Sensor (Thread)
Precise presence detection for smart home
The Meross Smart Presence Sensor is a next-generation smart presence sensor that allows you to automate your home based on the actual presence of people, not just movement. Thanks to the combination of a millimetre radar sensor, infrared detection and light sensor, the Meross sensor can detect even subtle micro movements, for example, breathing while sitting or lying down, with a detection range of up to 6 metres, and reliably keeps the lights on, air conditioning running or TV on without unnecessary interruptions. The Meross Smart Presence Sensor uses the advanced Matter over Thread protocol with low latency and local control, making it easy to connect to Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings or Home Assistant using a compatible Matter + Thread hub. Thanks to the 360° swivel stand and 90° tilt, you can easily install the occupancy sensor on the wall, ceiling or in the corner of the room, while the IP67 waterproof rating and operating temperatures from -20 to +60 °C ensure reliable operation even in the bathroom, basement or attic. A three-year battery life ensures maintenance-free operation, while the ability to split the detection area into three zones gives you maximum control over scenes - from night lighting to smart home security.

Compatible smart home platforms
Compatible with the Google Home platform
Through the Google Home app, you'll be able to control smart bulbs, thermostats, cameras or speakers, all from one place, by touch or voice. Set up everything you need by following the on-screen instructions in the app installed on your smartphone. Google Home supports thousands of devices from different manufacturers.
Compatible with the Apple Home platform
Apple Home is an app that has become a key tool for smart home users in the Apple ecosystem. From lights and thermostats to locks and cameras, you can easily manage all your smart devices in one place. If you're already using an Apple device, like iPhones, iPad, Mac or Apple Watch, Apple Home is the ideal way to, how to connect technologies and create a household, that adapts to your needs.
Compatible with Samsung SmartThings platform
Samsung SmartThings is an ecosystem that includes an app that makes it easy to control and manage smart devices in the home. You can use it to remotely switch appliances on and off, set up automations or monitor the status of connected devices. The app supports not only Samsung products, but also many other brands that are marked with the "Works with SmartThings" logo.

Compatible with the manufacturer's app
To use the product's smart features, you need to add the device to the manufacturer's app. For more information about the application (name, supported OS, supported languages) and how to add a device to the application, please refer to the product manual.

The Meross sensor is equipped with mmWave radar for accurate and economical detection
The Meross smart occupancy sensor uses advanced mmWave radar with optimized low power consumption that adapts to the specific scene and provides extremely accurate occupancy detection. Thanks to its sensitive sensing, the sensor can reliably detect a person even with minimal movement, while efficiently managing energy for long battery life. Combined with Matter over Thread, it enables fast local response without unnecessary delays.

Smart night lighting that responds to your presence
The Meross Smart Presence Sensor ensures you can safely go to the toilet in the middle of the night without having to look for the switch or worry about the lights going out. Thanks to sensitive real presence detection, the sensor can detect even complete stillness, for example when reading or using your phone, and keeps the light on for as long as you are present. The lights will turn on exactly when you get out of bed and stay on until you safely leave the room.

Occupancy sensor supports Matter over Thread for local and secure control
The Meross Thread Smart Presence Sensor MS605 uses Matter over Thread technology to provide fast, stable and local control without the need for a Wi-Fi connection. However, a compatible Matter + Thread Border Router is required for integration. Thanks to local communication, the sensor reacts to your presence almost instantly, without the delay caused by the cloud. Automation can work even without an internet connection, bringing greater security, stability and smooth operation to your smart home.
Virtual sensors for advanced smart scenes
With the Meross Smart Presence Sensor, you can split a single detection area into multiple virtual sensors, giving you significantly more accurate and smarter automation. In Meross, you can set up several separate zones with individual presence or absence conditions, and each zone is then displayed as a separate sensor in supported third-party platforms. For example, you can differentiate between bedside, desk or doorway spaces and trigger different lighting scenarios or other devices depending on the specific part of the room.


Adjustable detection range up to 6 metres
You can accurately set the detection range of the Meross sensor up to 6 metres and divide it into several separate zones to suit your needs. In Meross, you can activate or block individual parts of the space and fine-tune the sensitivity so that the sensor does not react to unwanted movements, such as from plants, fans or air conditioning. This minimizes false switching for more reliable and accurate home automation.

The Meross occupancy sensor works reliably even in homes with pets
With the ability to accurately adjust the sensing angle, you can focus the Meross occupancy sensor only on the top of the room, eliminating false alarms caused by pets or robotic vacuums. The sensor retains a high sensitivity to human presence, so that automation of lights, heating or security works exactly when it should - without interference or unnecessary reactions.

Continuous presence detection in the smart home
The Meross Smart Presence Sensor takes home automation to the next level with its ability to detect continuous presence even when you're barely moving. Whether you're sitting on the couch, watching TV or working on the computer, the Meross Smart Presence Sensor detects your presence and ensures that lights, TV or other smart devices stay on for the entire time you're in the room. The automations thus work naturally, without unexpected switching off or on.

Automatic lighting controlled by light sensor
The smart occupancy sensor can also automatically react to ambient light levels and provide light exactly when it is really needed. The built-in light sensor monitors the ambient light intensity and when it drops below a set threshold, the Meross Smart Presence Sensor automatically activates the lamp or other smart lighting.

Reliable security alarm for the smart home
The Meross Smart Presence Sensor can also serve as a reliable sensor for home security. With Matter over Thread connectivity, the sensor can instantly respond to presence detection and trigger an alarm via smart speakers or other devices in the home. It also sends real-time alerts to apps supported by third-party platforms, so you can stay on top of what's happening at home and remotely.
The Meross sensor has intelligent elimination of false switches
The occupancy sensor is constantly improving thanks to a self-learning algorithm and regular updates via Bluetooth OTA in the Meross app. The sensor gradually adapts to the specific conditions in your home and optimizes detection sensitivity to minimize false trips while maintaining high accuracy of presence detection. By simply updating the firmware directly from the app, the Meross Smart Presence Sensor stays up-to-date and ready to respond even more reliably, without the need for complex setup or installation intervention.

Sensor compatibility with Matter over Thread
To connect to third-party platforms, your smart home must support both Matter and Thread. The Meross Smart Presence Sensor requires a compatible Matter + Thread hub (Border Router), such as selected Apple HomePod models, Apple TV 4K, Google Nest Hub, Google Nest WiFi Pro, Amazon Echo devices or select SmartThings hubs. Thanks to this technology, the sensor operates with fast local response without relying on the cloud and ensures a stable and secure connection of the entire smart home. The functionality of each automation may vary depending on the platform used.
