PD300/PD310 is a state of the art FMCW milli-power radar designed for presence indication, volume and occupancy measurements on the roads with up to 6 lanes of detection. It is the premier product in its class available in the world. Typical applications include ground loop replacement, multi-lane traffic counters, mid-block detectors, stopped traffic detectors/incident detectors, vehicle actuated signals and intrusion.
- World’s smallest and lowest power usage ranging FMCW radar. At 0.18 Watts, it requires 10X to 20X less power than competing products.
- Simultaneously tracks up to six targets within a range of 120ft (37m).
- Available with 38×45° (PD300) & 20×60° (PD310) beam options.
- Up to 6 user-configurable lanes allows for maximum detection flexibility
- Unmatched range resolution down to 0.25 inch (0.63cm) (see manual).
- Highway & intersection optimized modes allow variety of applications.
- Six trigger outputs can be mapped to any combination of lanes.
- Companion Windows application provides intuitive GUI to set all.
- Configuration parameters and display real time plots of the targets.
- Wide input voltage range and low power simplifies solar operation.
- Firmware “boot loader” allows for field upgrading of the firmware.
- 100% built-in self-test for high confidence.
- IO break-out board available for quick evaluation.
- Built-in statistics storage memory for stand-alone data gathering.
- Full industrial temperature range. Potted for high reliability.
- FCC pre-approved with CE mark.
