Sensors for driverless cars’ navigation
Navtech Radar’s industrial grade sensors provide high-resolution imaging in all weather, lighting and environmental conditions, overcoming some of the fundamental limitations of laser and camera solutions.
Engineered to withstand extreme vibration, temperatures and environments, they are the most reliable sensors for use in mission-critical automation applications, providing critical sensor data when it’s needed most.
Navtech has 20 years’ experience designing sensors for the most demanding environments, such as mines, ports and industrial plants. The 360° scanning sensors have a narrow beam width and fast update rate, providing unambiguous, high dynamic range data. They are compact, light-weight, and fully ruggedized, specifically developed for automation applications in harsh environments – from measurement and ranging, to anti-collision and obstacle detection.
The sensor can be easily integrated into any software package, requiring only a power and ethernet connection to transfer raw image data (power spectrum and azimuth) that can be interpreted to suit the user’s needs.

CIR
The CIR sensor is a fully ruggedized compact scanning radar that has been specifically designed for use in high-intensity industrial environments. Its robust design is vibration, heat and impact resistant, whilst its 360° scanning ability provides high-resolution imagery and requires fewer sensors to cover any given area than traditional flat-panel radars. The sensor can be mounted at any angle for optimum performance. The radar can provide accurate measurements and ranging data, as well as the ability to detect obstacles and prevent collisions.

CAS
The CAS sensor is a fully ruggedized miniaturised edition of the CIR. With the same capabilities, it is designed for applications that require an even more compact sensor. Its robust design is vibration, heat and impact resistant, whilst its 360° scanning ability provides high-resolution imagery and requires fewer sensors to cover any given area than traditional flat-panel radars. The sensor can be mounted at any angle for optimum performance. The sensor’s newly developed onboard processing allows for minimised bandwidth and infrastructure requirements by analysing all data within the sensor and emitting only the required raw data. The radar can provide accurate measurements and ranging data, as well as the ability to detect obstacles and prevent collisions. Find out more about the sensor
