It looks like Espressif recently released a driver for this: https://components.espressif.com/components/espressif/at581x
I have the radar working. Here is a RADAR config that:
The last helps if on battery and also reduces network chatter. The first can be used in HA automations to turn on lights, fans, etc.

It is working well for me. I’d be interested to hear how well it works for others too. There was an initial issue for me with the device starting muted and not waking due to the absence switch defaulting to off, however I haven’t been able to replicate this.
Remember to clean your build files before install.
Enjoy.
Seems to be working but sometimes it got cleared even if I sit in front of it. Thanks for your work!

That might be the Case, If you don't move enough for the Sensor to be recognized^^

As Chris mentioned, the radar can see what's in front of it, chair, wall, plant, person, but if none of them move, it doesn't trigger. Radar does not have the resolution to understand what is in front of it, only that something has changed position since the last scan.
If it turns off too much for you just increase the Presence duration.
Dear Jaymunro, the radar configuration is also working for me. Thank you very much. My ESP32 S3 Box3 is integrated in Home Assistant / Esphome/ Voice Assistant. Besides the radar, other items like Temperature, Humidity, Batterie Level an Batterie voltage are working very well.
This seems to be working well for everyone (also here). If everyone agrees I can submit a PR to get this out for everyone else going forward.
I have it "working" as well using part of @jaymunro yaml config. However, it seems to behave more like a PIR than mmwave sensor. Wasn't able to find much info on "MS58-3909S68U4".
Is it just a really bad mmwave sensor or can improved drivers for it help?
And sure, increasing the timeout can help alleviate this problem, but yeah I'd like to use it as a presence sensor not PIR which is typically how you deal with those kinds of problems.
Can you clarify what you mean by it behaving like a PIR sensor? For me it is way more sensitive than a PIR, a few centimetres of movement 3-4 metres away can trigger it. My experience with PIR often involves waving arms around to trigger them.
If you mean by the lack of ability to configure zones, sensitivity and such, then yes, to my understanding that is
The chip would need to be configured by sending parameters over the I2C bus but the I2C is presently conflicting with the audio (maybe whole I2S bus) in ESPHome and there is presently no component in esphome for that chip that I am aware of.
Once there is support, we should be able to configure the chip beyond its default configuration which seems what we are stuck with at present.
Just playing around with it again, I still have to say its sensitivity feels about on par with PIR sensors I've used. It resets presence a lot faster obviously, but yeah it is very insensitive.
In any case, I hope it is just a case of needing drivers to increase the sensitivity so it'll be usable as a typical mmwave sensor in the future.
Also off topic, but does anyone have an ESPHome config for the temperature sensor?

Is above. Quite a bit above but use search. However it uses the I2C bus which at present conflicts with VA. (VA will stop working after a device restart)
hello at all I have no conflicts with VA when using I2C . Besides the radar, other items like Temperature, Humidity, Batterie Level an Batterie voltage are working very well.
Can you please share the whole config with the community? I have snippets from several places, but it would be great to see a config already proved to be stable :)
Thank you Laszlo

Did you power down and restart the box? I thought the same too until I did a cold restart.

Hello no need to write down my configuration. It's exactly the same as Jaymunro's
This will be in ESPHome 2024.4.0, usable with the at581x
component. The just released beta version (2024.4.0b1) includes it:
Docs:
Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like The Espressif S3-Box3 comes with an additional Sensor-dock. This Sensor-dock contains an IR-Transmitter, IR-Receiver, a AHT-30 Temperature & Humidity Sensor, as well as a radar-based presence detector.
Based on the Schematics, the AHT-30 and the Radar Sensor are using the I2C-Bus, both should be available on the following ports:
From the technical documentation, the Radar-Sensor should be an MS58-3909S68U4
Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried: Support components for the Espressif ESP32-S3-Box3
