Automotive radar has been around for decades, but over the past few years there has been a flurry of activity in the new uses of radar in the car – from new applications to exotic antennas. This talk will introduce the audience to some new radar-based applications in vehicle localization, in-cabin health monitoring, and occupancy detection as well as cover notable new approaches to classic automotive radar. We will discuss how they work, why they are useful and, in some cases, why it took so long for them to appear.
