What does a radar do in a car?
In ADAS, automotive radar is one of the several sensor systems for collision avoidance, pedestrian and cyclist detection, and complements vision-based camera-sensing systems. The radar technology generally used is frequency-modulated continuous-wave or FMCW radar, which is quite different from the pulse-Doppler radar.
What is a radar system?
radar, electromagnetic sensor used for detecting, locating, tracking, and recognizing objects of various kinds at considerable distances. It operates by transmitting electromagnetic energy toward objects, commonly referred to as targets, and observing the echoes returned from them.
How is radar used in self driving cars?
RADAR technology in autonomous vehicles operates with millimeter waves and offers millimeter precision. The utilization of millimeter waves in autonomous vehicular RADAR ensures high resolution in obstacle detection and centimeter accuracy in position and movement determination.
