zPULSE
The Workhorse.
zPULSE is Zadar’s compact imaging radar, delivering high-resolution performance while balancing size and weight for short to medium-range sensing.
Built on the same SDIR™ platform as zPRIME, zPULSE shares the same core radar technology, processing, and interfaces for seamless integration.
zPULSE is available in 60GHz, which can now be used in a wide array of new indoor and stationary applications in addition to all existing use cases available at 77GHz.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Of course! Our component pages have videos of our detection performance and features. Contact us and we'd be happy to show you more.
-
Our sensors are designed to work with zVUE as part of our unified Full-stack SDIR platform. This tight integration involving context-aware feedback from zVUE is what allows our sensors to achieve their performance. Contact us and we can work with you based on your specific integration needs.
-
Our zVUE Radar Operating System works with all 4D radar sensors in Partial SDIR mode. Its connected radar fusion, data conditioning, and radar preperception libraries immediately boost system performance on any platform. The full performance of radar can only be achieved by combining zVUE with Zadar radar sensors in Full-Stack SDIR mode.
-
Our solid-state radar platforms are automotive-grade and are designed for use in harsh, low-maintenance environments.
-
No, commercial 60 and 77GHz radars have been used safely for a long time. Our radar technology is not like military or marine radar. It is a low-power, surface-reflecting sensing technology and manufacturers follow strict transmit power limits. Our excellent detection range comes from highly sensitive detectors and SDIR system optimization, not from high transmit power.
-
Susceptibility to radar-radar interference is one of the core problems that SDIR solves. In our architecture, improving detection performance and increasing interference resistance go hand-in-hand. SDIR integrates several in-house innovations including RFTDMA modulation, action potential-based detection, and AI denoising that make interference a non-issue.
