Radar sensor for harsh environmental and weather conditions

The R1D distance sensor detects objects through a focused radar beam. The powerful technology also makes it possible to detect targets with poorly reflective properties. The data obtained in this way can be clearly visualized with the "Vision Assistant" software. For example, several objects can be displayed simultaneously via the distance profile and their relative speed can be displayed simultaneously.

Reliable detection in harsh environments

With its long range, shock and vibration resistance and various operating modes, the radar sensor is designed to accurately detect objects even in the most adverse conditions. Whether it is raining, snowing, windy or extremely dusty, the powerful radar sensor technology always ensures reliable operation. The result is a wide range of applications for the sensor, for example the detection of vehicles such as trucks and ships, during docking processes at loading and unloading bays. In addition, the radar sensor makes it possible to monitor conveyor belts with respect to load and speed and scores in car washes with its robustness against spray. In a nutshell: a true all-rounder in distance and speed measurement.
