Presence detection like alarmo

Hi

Would there, for presence detection, be an integration like alarmo does for alarms?

What I mean is that this integration looks at multiple factors (f.e. Wifi, zone, Bluetooth range,…) to determine if someone is really home.

You can create your own using the Bayesian integration:

There’s an excellent howto here, along with an interactive spreadsheet to work out the maths for you.

How Bayes Sensors work, from a Statistics Professor (with working Google Sheets!)

I’ve seen dozens of Bayes Binary Sensor explanations. As both a programmer and a statistics professor, they all give me the shivers. There are explanations out these that are wrong both from a math & statistics perspective and from a programming & implementation perspective. So, here is the definitive explanation. Grab some coffee, and lets get down to brass-stats. Weaved within the post is how I think about setting the values for these sensors (from a real stats perspective). Knowing how the …

I’ll take a look at it, thanks

This is built into HA. Your user can have a number of device tracker entities associated to it (in the settings for your user). If you really need to, you can use a Bayesian sensor as one of these device trackers, but I recommend you pick something that is reliable because otherwise your automations can be flaky.
