Researchers at UC Davis have created a seed-sized radar that is both energy efficient and can detect some of the tiniest changes.
Researchers have revealed that a new seed-sized radar prototype can detect movements 1/100th the width of human hair. What’s even more intriguing, though, is that the radar is so tiny and energy efficient, opening up tons of possible ways we could utilize it. The creators of the seed-sized radar shared the details in a new paper published in the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits.
The new radar prototype from the researchers at the University of California, Davis has been designed to counteract these issues, though. This allows the seed-sized radar to pick up tiny movements that are 100th the width of a human hair without getting lost in the background noise. And, because the new chip is so tiny, it currently offers more use cases than other sensors with similar levels of accuracy.
