DX00: Hemispherical sensing

THE WORLD’S FIRST HEMISPHERICAL RADAR SENSOR

Oxford RF does not stop at providing full 360-degree coverage. 360-degree sensors cover the horizontal plane fully but do not cover the regions above and below the sensor in the zenith and nadir directions respectively.

Enter hemispherical radar sensors: Oxford RF’s sensor range that provide a dome-shaped coverage in the zenith or nadir directions in addition to full 360 degree coverage around the sensor – all in one solid-state package.

Hemispherical sensors are useful when the top or bottom regions of a sensor needs to be covered fully in addition to the horizonal 360-degree space. Examples include:

  • Industrial vehicles requiring a measure of ceiling height in addition to surround sensing
  • Aerial drones (UAV) requiring a measure of altitude in addition to surround sensing
  • HGVs requiring a clear indication of the height of bridges
