How to connect the LD2410C 24GHz Human Presence Sensor Module to an Arduino UNO or ESP32, with an example sketch you can upload straight away.
This project detects human presence using the digital output pin of the LD2410C 24GHz mmWave radar sensor. When motion or stationary presence is detected, the built-in LED lights up and the status is reported to the Serial Monitor.

This circuit reads real-time mmWave radar data from the LD2410C sensor over UART using ESP32 Serial2. A resistor voltage divider (1kΩ / 2kΩ) safely steps down the sensor's 5V TX output to 3.3V for the ESP32 RX2 pin. Presence, stationary targets, and moving targets are reported over the Serial Monitor.
