4D imaging radar has become a technology of choice for in-cabin safety and ADAS, favored for its high-resolution imaging, versatile field of view configurations and precise target data. But high cost, substantial hardware and extreme complexity have restricted deployment to premium models. In this thought-provoking session, we will discuss a crucial turning point for 4D imaging radar, which made it affordable and accessible to all vehicle models, supporting dozens of applications. The “Democratization of 4D Imaging Radar” is a presentation about making high-end safety available for all vehicle models.
