If your smart-home lights keep missing you when you sit still, swap PIR sensors for mm-wave radar.
These sensors detect micro-movement + presence, not just motion โ€” so your lights stay on when youโ€™re actually in the room.

We use the Hi-Link LD2450 as an example: tiny, accurate and easy to integrate into DIY automation projects.
