Surveying and mapping technologies have come a long way in the last few years, of which one is LiDAR. LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging and is used to locate objects and their positions based on how far it is from the light-emitting source. As the name suggests, a light source is used to…
In the modern age, humans have started drifting away from not relying too much on their eyes and side mirrors to drive their vehicles anymore. Autonomous or self-driving vehicles have started taking the world by storm and are the future. It is common knowledge that top car manufacturing companies like Telsa and Waymo have embraced…
AESA Radar vs. Pulsed Doppler Technological advancements in the 1980s resulted in the invention of the Pulse-Doppler radar which had the capabilities of tracking while scanning. This feature enabled the radar to track specific targets, while also being alert for the possible entry of other objects. The bad news is that pulse-Doppler radars are also…
Radar (Radio Detecting and Ranging) systems and systems that are designed to detect objects and to evaluate the distance between the objects and a single antenna or a group of antennas. Both active and passive radars have advantages, and people prefer using either of them for different reasons. As they have advantages, they also have…
These are devices that are bought to detect radio waves. As a matter of fact, radar detectors detect radio waves in a range of wavelengths X, K, Ka, and Ku. Today, these devices have seen many uses. In some cases, they are used to inform motorists about speed traps and radar guns. In some other…
RADAR is an abbreviation that stands for Radio Detection and Ranging System. It is generally an electromagnetic system that detects the distance and location of an object. It has a Radar transmitter that relies on the principle of reflection when capturing data. Basically, the radio waves are transmitted through space and onto the objects. The…
LIDAR is an abbreviation for light detection and ranging. It is basically a system of data collection that uses laser pulses and the time of flight calculation in order to capture large quantities of data. One notable thing about this method is the fact that it’s incredibly accurate. Over time, there have been various advancements…
Radar also commonly known as Radio detection and ranging has been the talk of the town for the last few years. It has actually become a very important tool for predicting the weather. This technology was brought to light by Britain and the U.S during the second World War. Although this technology was not used…
People are coming up with different technologies all with the aim of easing the whole human operation speed. Today the LIDAR and the LASER technology have become a go for and many people are talking about the opportunities that these technologies are offering and the ones they will offer in the future. With the definition…
The field of Construction is one that is continuously growing and has recently received various innovations such as LIDAR. LIDAR, to begin with, is an acronym that stands for Light Detection and Ranging. It’s by itself a remote sensing technology just like RADAR. However, LIDAR delivers more capabilities due to its use of light. This…
