From the project

Embedded radar sensor circuit with STM32 microcontroller for measuring target speed

RADAR stands for Radio Detection And Ranging and is a detection system that uses radio waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects. It can be used to detect aircraft, ships, spacecraft, guided missiles, motor vehicles, weather formations, and terrain. Radars are now involved in various applications. It was initially used for target detection in military applications but nowadays it is used in tracking of aircrafts and vehicles and also in traffic control and space. In this project we will concentrate on motion and speed detection of objects using Radars.
