[Support]: Stationary person sensor for room occupancy issue

Describe the problem you are having

Hello, I’m glad to see that the new version add the ability to track stationary objects, I have a large room divided in 3 zones and I want to have a binary sensor that stay on when someone stay in a zone, I’m not sure that I understand correctly the new version (I have randomly tweaked the values but no change) because I can see that a person is detected in that zone in the debug mode but my binary sensor in Home Assistant goes on when I enter in the zone but then goes off after a few seconds.

Is there a way to tweak my code ?

A huge thank you in advance for your help and thank you for your work! 🙂

Sorry I should have mentioned it, I have the 0.11.1 build.

I also had to lower the threshold to 0.5 and the min_area to 2000 for some zones but I don’t know if it’s related to this issue. I also changed this for a more sensitive detection:

motion:
  threshold: 10
  delta_alpha: 0.5
  frame_alpha: 0.3
  frame_height: 50

I can say that I have now a very solid occupancy detection in my zones.

@Raphael909 What that means is that once an object is considered stationary, there will be no detection run to confirm it is still there. detection will only be run when motion occurs. 0 is the default value for this and should remain that way for in this scenario.
