Honeywell RVS

Range and Velocity without GNSS 

HRVS

Honeywell radar velocity system

The Honeywell Radar Velocity System is built upon mm Wave sensing technology (60-64GHz or 76-81 GHz) providing the range and velocity of objects. It can provide cm level-range accuracy and is impervious to environmental conditions such as rain, fog, dust and snow. HRVS is meant to be used as a body velocity aiding source for inertial navigation systems as well as airborne altimeter and depth mapping/ground avoidance sensor
pack, ready for application in multiple market segments and use cases.
