About 4cm, powered by CR2477 batteries.

Edit. Found another one, and this one had the top off.

The logo is for Ecobee, they do smart home stuff like thermostats and doorbells. That specifically looks like one of their smart sensors

Yep! Specifically, this is likely a temperature and occupancy sensor meant for use in conjunction with their smart thermostats. Something pretty similar to this: https://a.co/d/0g0CuprM

100% an Ecobee remote sensor. Connects to a thermostat, totally benign.

I'd say the central component in the opened pic is a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyroelectricity (PIR) sensor. Often used for detecting motion, but some models at least can do more.
