zPULSE 2.0
Compact, high-resolution 4D software-defined imaging radar with 120° × 90° field of view
Overview
zPULSE 2.0 is a compact, energy-efficient 76–81 GHz imaging radar that produces dense 4D point clouds for safety, perception, mapping and navigation. Built on Zadar's SDIR platform, it delivers 0.7° static angular resolution and >650 m truck detection across a 120° × 90° field of view in a 250 g package.
Solid-state and IP68-sealed, it keeps working in rain, fog, dust and snow with low maintenance, and it is hardware- and software-compatible with zPRIME 3.0, outputting real-time point cloud, object list and RCS data.
