What makes radar a good sensing option?
Radar sensors from Banner are unaffected by wind, rain, snow, sunlight, fog, humidity, dust, and dirt. They are temperature-stable and do not crosstalk. They work well indoors and outdoors and reliably detect moving and stationary objects.
These factors make Banner's radar sensors an outstanding choice for use in many applications where other sensing technologies are less or unreliable.
In addition to changing environmental conditions, radar technology works reliably in enclosures, and provides dependable detection of varying surfaces, as well as colors and finishes. In addition, long-range radar sensors can detect different targets, even at greater distances.

Explore Radar in Action
From vehicle detection and positioning feedback to monitoring the fill levels of wet or dry materials, radar sensors are an increasingly popular choice in many industrial applications.
With a wide (120° x 40°) field of view and two highly-configurable independent sensing zones, our Q90R2 Radar Sensor detects vehicles parked at two adjacent loading docks.
Learn How
Featuring a large horizontal and vertical detection area, the Q90R Radar Sensor provides intelligent object detection based on distance, radial position, and speed thresholds.

Despite the presence of steam and high-pressure water spray, T30RW Radar Sensors consistently detect the presence and position of vehicles in an automated car wash.
Learn More
Our K50RB Radar Sensor is a robust, cost-efficient sensing solution with a 40° x 30° beam pattern that provides full coverage to prevent mobile robots from colliding with objects.
Learn How
Airborne dust challenges most sensors, but the high-frequency microwaves from a T30R Radar Sensor pass through airborne particles to ensure that hopper levels are accurately measured.

For two decades, Banner has been the leading developer of industrial radar sensors, offering a wide range of models with unique features and capabilities to solve applications that typically challenge other sensing technologies.
So, if you have an application where temperature extremes, precipitation, swirling dust and dirt are complicating factors or if you need reliable sensing of hard-to-detect objects—near or far, in-motion or stationary—Banner has you covered.
When incorporated as part of an automated system comprising sensing,
real-time indication, and instant feedback, radar becomes an incredibly
powerful component of a reliable and efficient operation.
