How to log access using wireless motion sensor

Tech Support
1

Have barely used HomeKit, so please be gentle. :slight_smile:

I am looking to add a wireless motion sensor to a small entryway and log when anyone enters the area. No power there, so needs to be battery-powered and wireless. I am looking for hardware recommendation; and how to set up HomeKit or other app to do the logging (and/or notifications).

I have several of the major hubs, by the way: Aqara, SmartThings, Lutron. And I see Aqara has a motion sensor that looks like just what I need.

Doable?

Home Assistant would make this easy. Might be more than you want to tackle, but logging time-series data and providing data analysis functions is straightforward with all the tools available for HA.
