Awesome, I wonder what this combined with some electronic automation can do. Eg, I walk into a room and lights turn on, i walk out, lights turn off (depending on time of the day etc).

Motion sensored room light has been available for at least 15-20 years.

This is billed as a replacement for motion sensors in home automation. Though it does beg the question, "what if someone moves their router?"

Yeah, but do any of those motion sensor systems detect if a person is still in the room but motionless? Eg if you're sat reading.

I ask because Ive had to wave my arms about far too often in public restrooms due to motion sensors deactivating the lights when spending too long on the toilet. Having that happen in my own home would be annoying enough to warrant the additional complexity of FIND (or ditch home automation entirely)

Sure, but with this you've got less hardware involved in total, and more flexibility for programmed responses.
