Real-time awareness. Zero visibility issues. Radar keeps your fields protected and informed.
You Can’t Monitor What You Can’t See
Farming is hard enough without flying blind.
Cameras? Limited by fog, sun glare, and dust.
Soil sensors? Need to be buried, maintained, and calibrated.
And manual inspection? Not scalable.
But mmWave radar brings a new solution:
Detect what’s moving—where, how fast, and from what direction—day or night, rain or shine.
Radar Detects the Movement That Matters
Linpowave radar doesn’t analyze plant growth or soil moisture.
Instead, it specializes in detectingmotion, direction, and distance—ideal for:
-
Identifying approachingmachinery, animals, or people
-
Monitoring crop rows forunauthorized movement
-
Securing field perimeters inlow-visibility conditions
And unlike cameras or drones, radar sees throughfog, dust, and even darkness.

Applications in the Field
🚜 Machine Movement Detection
Track tractors, harvesters, and drones by theirtrajectory, speed, and distance, even in zero visibility.
🛡️ Intrusion Prevention
Get instant alerts whenmoving targetsenter protected field zones—useful for keeping out animals or night-time trespassers.
🌾 Field Motion Monitoring
By scanning formicro-movements across a wide angle, Linpowave radar can flag unexpected activity between crop rows or near irrigation lines.

Why Radar Outperforms Visual Sensors Outdoors
Feature | mmWave Radar | Cameras/Drones |
---|---|---|
Night & fog functionality | ✅ Works in all conditions | ❌ Limited by visibility |
Maintenance needs | ✅ No lens cleaning required | ⚠️ Requires frequent upkeep |
Motion sensitivity | ✅ Based on velocity + angle | ⚠️ Requires clear view |
Coverage area | ✅ Wide-angle, continuous | ⚠️ Narrow field of view |
FAQs – What Radar Can (and Can’t) Do in Agriculture
Q1: Can radar detect soil moisture or crop growth?
No.Linpowave radar detectsdistance, speed, and angle. It does not analyze biological or chemical properties.
Q2: So how is it useful in farming?
Radar helps detectmovement patterns—from equipment to animals—providing real-time field awareness without needing cameras or weather-dependent tools.
Q3: Can radar improve safety on farms?
Yes. By detecting incoming movement, radar can warn operators ofcollision risks or intrusions, even in fog, dust, or darkness.
Q4: Can it be mounted on moving vehicles?
Absolutely. Linpowave radar modules are lightweight and compact, perfect fortractors, UAVs, or irrigation systems.
The Right Tool for the Right Job
Radar won’t tell you how tall your plants are, or how much water they need.
But itwill tell you what’s moving in your field—fast, far, and with precision.
