In this video, we will be learning how to use the *Rd-03D 24 Ghz mmWave radar* sensor to *detect and track humans* with a *Raspberry Pi Pico.* We will be learning how the sensor works, how to connect it to your Pico, looking at a library to use it, and we will have some fun with it by drawing some radar visualisations and creating a human speedometer!
