FIELDS OF APPLICATION
MILITARY REMOTE SENSING AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL LAW ENFORCEMENT AND HIGHWAY SECURITY AIRCRAFT SAFETY AND NAVIGATION SHIP SAFETY SPACE MISCELLANEOUS APPLICATIONS

MILITARY
IMPORTANT PART OF AIR DEFENCE SYSTEM,OPERATION OF OFFENSIVE MISSILES & OTHER WEAPONS TARGET DETECTION, TARGET TRACKING & WEAPON CONTROL TRACKS THE TARGETS, DIRECTS THE WEAPON TO AN INTERCEPT AND ASSESS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ENGAGEMENT ALSO USED IN AREA, GROUND & AIR SURVEILLANCE.

REMOTE SENSING
WEATHER OBSERVATION-T.V.REPORTING PLANETARY OBSERVATION BELOW GROUND PROBING MAPPING OF SEA ICE

AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL

USED TO SAFELY CONTROL AIR TRAFFIC IN THE VICINITY OF THE AIRPORTS AND ENROUTE GROUND VEHICULAR TRAFFIC & AIRCRAFT TAXING MAPPING OF REGIONS OF RAIN IN THE VICINITY OF AIRPORTS & WEATHER

LAW ENFORCEMENT & HIGHWAY SAFETY

RADAR SPEED METERS ARE USED BY POLICE FOR ENFORCING SPEED LIMITS IT IS USED FOR WARNING OF PENDING COLLISION, ACTUATING AIR BAG OR WARNING OF OBSTRUCTION OR PEOPLE BEHIND A VEHICLE OR IN THE SIDE BLIND ZONE

AIRCRAFT SAFETY & NAVIGATION

AIRBORNE WEATHER AVOIDANCE RADAR OUTLINES THE REGIONS OF PRECIPITATION & DANGEROUS WIND SHEAR LOW FLYING MILITARY AIRCRAFTS RELY ON TERRAIN AVOIDANCE & TERRAIN FOLLOWING RADARS TO AVOID COLLISION WITH HIGH TERRAIN & OBSTRUCIONS

SHIP SAFETY
RADAR IS FOUND ON SHIPS & BOATS FOR COLLISION AVOIDANCE & TO OBSERVE NAVIGATION BUOYS, WHEN THE VISIBILITY IS POOR SHORE BASED RADARS ARE USED FOR SURVEILLANCE OF HARBOURS & RIVER TRAFFIC

SPACE
SPACE VEHICLES HAVE USED RADAR FOR CLOCKING & FOR LANDING ON THE MOON USED FOR PLANETARY EXPLORATION GROUND BASED RADARS ARE USED FOR DETECTION & TRACKING OF SATELLITES & OTHER SPACE OBJECTS USED FOR RADIO ASTRONOMY

OTHER APPLICATIONS

IT IS USED FOR NON CONTACT MEASUREMENT OF SPEED & DISTANCE USED FOR OIL & GAS EXPLORATION USED TO STUDY MOVEMENTS OF INSECTS & BIRDS

GPR APPLICATIONS
SHALLOW GPR SURVEYS LOCATE PIPES AND UTILITIES BURIED OBJECTS CEMETERLY & GRAVE LOCATION DEEP GPR SURVEYS LANDFILL & TRENCH DELINEATION BEDROCK DEPTH STUDIES SINK HOLE LOCATION

HHR APPLICATIONS
SECURITY & BORDER SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM UNDER GROUND, THROUGH-WALL & OCEAN IMAGING AUTOMOTIVE SAFETY, INCLUSING COLLISIONAVOIDANCE & INTELLIGENT CRUISE-CONTROL SYSTEM SMART DIVICE SUCH AS LIGHTS, HEATERS & TOOLS THAT AUTOMATICALLY TURN ON OR OFF MEDICAL DIAGNOSTICS

DAY TO DAY

APPLICATIONS

DETONATORS
MICROPOWER IMPULSE RADAR SENSORS USED IN PROXIMITY FUSES HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFULLY TESTED. THE FUSES TRIGGER SMALL BOMBS TO DETONATE AT ABOUT 1 METER FROM THE GROUND.

A LIFE SAVER
LIVERMORE ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGIST USED A MICROPOWER IMPULSE RADAR SENSOR ATTACHED TO AN EXTENDER TO SEARCH FOR TRAPPED PEOPLE THROUGH RUBBLE AT GROUND ZERO OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER FOLLOWING THE SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, TERRORIST ATTACKS.

HERMES- ROAD MAINTAINANCE

A) THE HERMES (HIGHPERFORMANCE ELECTROMAGNETIC ROADWAY MAPPING AND EVALUATION SYSTEM) BRIDGE INSPECTOR IS A RADAR-BASED SENSING SYSTEM MOUNTED IN A TRAILER. (B) THE ARRAY OF 64 RADAR MODULES LOCATED BENEATH THE TRAILER PRODUCES IMAGES OF THE INSIDES OF BRIDGE DECKS. (C) THIS IMAGE SHOWS A SUSPECT AREA WHERE A DELAMINATION IN THE CONCRETE MAY HAVE OCCURRED.

GHANTA
THIS VEHICLE TOWS THE ANTENNA TRANSCEIVER GROUP (ATG) WITH THE INTEGRATED MODULAR AZIMUTH POSITIONING SYSTEM (MAPS) MOUNTED ON THE TRAILER. THIS IS CONTROLLED BY AN OPERATOR EITHER LOCATED WITHIN THE SHELTER OR REMOTELY LOCATED
