Radar Overview

The Radar scans the space in front of it, looking for signatures of interest. Once a signature is detected, the Radar can track it and determine its direction (azimuth and elevation) and range in real time. It does this with mm-waves alone: no cameras involved.

Its standout features include:

  • Single Radar: One is the minimum number of Radars needed to deploy a system. There is no need for several anchors to enable triangulation or trilateration.
  • Ultra-Precise in 3D: The Radar ranges with cm precision and measures angles with fractions of degrees of precision, thereby enabling 3D cm-precise sensing at long ranges.
  • Inherently Real-Time: The Radar acquires positions every tens of ms.
  • Simple Output: The Radar interprets the raw data and streams a simple output comprised of the identity of nearby Tags and their position. Easy.

Whether it is the tracking of tagged assets in a space using fixed radars deployed around a facility, or the accurate localization of people, items, or landmarks by mobile equipment (trucks, AGVs, etc.) for automation and operator assistance, Theia provides yet unmatched capabilities.
