Drone Radar refers to radar technology integrated into Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or drones. These systems enable drones to detect, map, and navigate environments by emitting radio waves and analyzing their reflections. Unlike optical sensors (e.g., cameras), radar operates effectively in darkness, fog, rain, dust, and smoke, making it critical for all-weather missions.
Key Features & Functions:
Sensing Capabilities:
Obstacle Detection: Identifies terrain, buildings, power lines, and other aircraft.
Terrain Mapping: Generates high-resolution 3D maps using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR).
