We need to detect a person up to 6-7 ft away. When a person is wearing dark clothes, it's only good for about 4-5 ft.

It's currently running on a Pi Pico W at 3.3v. Would running on a 5 v system increase range?

“Would running on a 5 v system increase range?”   

I think you can try.   It won't damage the sensor.   Things like dart clother which may absorb light will affect the detecting range.
