I don't have the expertise to fix this... Maybe someday...

anyone look through this and have a fix?

Hi there thank you for this. I hadn’t compiled my sensors in a while as they have been working fine. Just seen that this is now deprecated.

I’ll update the repo over the next few days hopefully to address this.

I was able to fix my presence sensor by using the fixed code for ESP here, https://github.com/DuncanIdahoCT/DFRobot-mmWave-Radar-dfrobot_sen0395

@DrFate09 would you mind sharing your code?
