6D Digital Imaging Radar

What Is 6D Digital Imaging Radar?

Radar (Radio Detection and Ranging) operates by emitting radio waves that reflect off objects and return to the receiver. The time delay and signal characteristics reveal information about the target's distance, direction, and velocity.

6D Data Output

Combines 3D Spatial (range, azimuth, elevation) with 3D Motion (velocity, acceleration, jerk) for unparalleled environmental awareness. By incorporating material density mapping (5th dimension) and internal structure (6th dimension), the advanced radar system outplay the traditional one.

Digital Imaging

Generates "camera-like images" using radar signals, enabling object classification in all weather conditions.

Ultra-Wideband

Offer wide range frequencies range form 70MHz to 81GHz, enabling long range(300m), deep penetration(40cm), and microscopic detection.

MIMO Architecture

Multi-antenna design for interference-free, high resolution imaging.
