The Importance of Imaging Radar

Why do we talk about radar systems at all? Every year, about 1.3 million people die on the world's roads, and millions more are severely injured. The adoption of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) with radar technology are crucial to safer driving, avoiding accidents and saving lives. Radar adoption is significantly accelerating by mandates across regions and regional New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) ratings. Many regions, for example, have issued legislation or five-star safety ratings for making certain features mandatory, such as automatic emergency braking, blind-spot detection or vulnerable road user detection.
