We got an interesting new news when we talked to HLK senior people:
Documentation will be out by the weekend at the earliest, samples are now at the factory posting money. R&D to do the OP again. app may not come out before release, but will synchronize the app update in two weeks.Hardware does not need to be upgraded, app support directly behind it.
Compared to the 2410 distance is farther, can do up to 9 meters, stable more than 8 meters, the angle is bigger, plus or minus 150 degrees.
Multiple distance resolutions can be set.
The main thing is to upgrade the 2410, mcu changed to a better one, because there are more distance gates to deal with some algorithms.
The LD2410 sensor is a very good sensor for its price. Hopefully LD2412 will be as good. But are LD2412 and LD1125F the same?(Question From Tiep Pham Minh@FB)
Due to performance and hardware upgrades, this product will cost more than the 2410. According to reliable sources, compared to competitors in the market with the same.
Is it plug compatible with existing device? (Question From Brian F Morgan@FB)
There is a difference in the hardware size, this antenna is bigger and wider.They have different foot positions: 2412 both sides of the foot position 2410 only one side of the foot position

Can I use the ld2410 esphome code?(Question From Tiep Pham Minh@FB)
The software protocol is partially compatible because there are differences in the function definitions, and the 2412 has a lot of distance gates, so there's no way it's fully compatible.— HLK
