The new Vayyar sensor covers imaging and radar frequency ranges from 3GHz-81GHz with 72 transmitters and 72 receivers in one chip. Enhanced by an integrated, powerful DSP with large internal memory, it does not require an external CPU to run complex imaging algorithms.

Vayyar's new sensor overcomes technological limitations and supports a high bandwidth that enables accuracy and high-resolution results. It distinguishes between objects and people, determines the location when mapping large areas and generates a 3D image of the environment. In real time, the sensor simultaneously detects and classifies a large number of measurement targets.

Thanks to the use of broadband radio waves, the sensor can penetrate various materials and works in all weather and light conditions. This makes it suitable for a wide range of applications in the automotive and industrial sectors.

Raviv Melamed, co-founder, CEO and Chairman of Vayyar, said: "Radio wave imaging is a powerful technology that has been overlooked for decades. Vayyar's new sensor finally taps into this enormous potential."

The first generation of Vayyar's high-performance sensors is already in use in a variety of industries and at several Fortune 500 companies worldwide, including Softbank in Japan.

"Together with the chip, we offer our customers a complete software suite and advanced algorithms. This allows them to develop products based on our technology faster and gives them accelerated market access for a wide range of products. These can help take better care of the elderly, detect cancer at an early stage, make homes safer without compromising privacy, and increase the road safety of cars in all weather conditions," says Melamed.
The technology is already in use in a variety of industries.

For example:

• Building trade
• Elderly care
• Breast cancer prevention
• Automotive industry
• Smart home
• Retail industry
• Robotics
