LiDAR, Radar, and Sonar are the modern remote sensing techniques used by various professionals to collect and analyze data. The main difference between these technologies is they use different mediums to send signals to and from the objects and then analyze the time taken to measure the distance between the transmitter and the objects. Radar …
LiDAR and Radar are the latest remote sensing technologies that have replaced the traditional data collection methods such as photogrammetry and surveying. They are relatively easy to use and offer faster and more accurate services as compared to the traditional methods. But of the two methods, LiDAR has some advantages over Radar owing to the …
Solid-state radar and magnetron are two radar techniques that work in competition with each other. However, solid-state radar is known to be of a higher quality and has a higher operational preference as compared to Magnetron radar. Below are some of the differences between the two. Solid-state radar 1. Low Maintenance: Solid-state radar does …

The transmitter is the part of a radar system responsible for the production of short-duration high-powered radio frequency pulses of energy that is subsequently radiated into space using an antenna. There are various transmitters depending on the scope and usage. We are going to look at the differences between the Guided Wave Radar level transmitter …

A little competition between two rival entities always spices things up. This is true even in the level measurement world where the two most commonly used methods, the Ultrasonic level measurement and the Radar level measurement compete for supremacy. The ultrasonic technique uses sound-based measurements while the radar technique uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves. Below are …

Non-contact radar is a radar that is based on microwave technology that sends the microwave signals through the air and not a medium. On the other hand, Guided Wave Radar instruments use waveguide “probes” to guide radio waves into a process fluid. Both of these techniques are used to measure the surface level of fluids …
LiDAR and RADAR remote sensing are some of the most common remote sensing techniques in use today. LiDAR uses light rays or lasers to send and receive signals while RADAR uses radio signals to send and receive signals to and from an object. But what are the differences between these two remote sensing techniques? …
The technology behind vehicle autonomy and driverless cars rely on a number of technologies. Among these technologies are RADAR and LiDAR. Both of these technologies have their functions in autonomous vehicles but come with their own blend of strengths and weaknesses. We examine both technologies and how each of them has been used in this …
Marine radar is a radar that is mounted and used by ships at sea for collision avoidance and other uses. It is used to detect other ships at sea and any other land obstacles. It is one of the most important safety components at sea and near the shores. But like all radar systems, marine …
RADAR stands for Radio Detection and Ranging System. It is an electromagnetic system used to detect the distance and location of an object from the RADAR transmitter. RADAR works on the principle of reflection where radio waves are transmitted through space onto the object and the echoes or reflections are monitored. Radio signals are transmitted …
