Samsung Thales to Develop Vehicle-Mounted Land Mine Detector Based on Novelda Nanoscale Impulse Radar System

Samsung Thales, Co., Ltd (South Korea) has launched the development program of Vehicle-mounted Land Mine Detector. Samsung Thales' development will be based on the Novelda NVA6100 Nanoscale Impulse Radar system.

Novelda NVA6000 series Nanoscale Impulse Radar Chips

Land mines left behind from wars worldwide are one of the century's main unsolved problems of war and remain the focus of humanitarian mine detection and removal.

Novelda is proud to contribute to this development.

"The Novelda Impulse Radar is a complete CMOS radar system integrated on a single chip, an electromagnetic high precision sensor for human vital sign monitoring, personal security, environmental monitoring, industrial automation and other novel sensor applications," says Novelda's CMO Aage Kalsaeg.

In comparison to traditional technology, the Novelda NVA6100 Impulse Radar system offers several improvements and value added features.

The ability to detect objects behind obstacles, coupled with increased speed and high sensitivity, not only makes it complementary and/or a substitute for existing technologies such as ultrasound, video and infrared sensors, but it has catered new areas of applications as well.

The Novelda Impulse Radar system successfully caters to sensor applications across a range of sectors including health monitoring (including stress and pulse monitoring), medical diagnosis (including heart beat monitoring and 3D RF-imaging), automotive and industrial (including distance and road obstacle detection), security surveillance (such as motion detection), and energy automation and defense.

"Unlike technologies that demand free visibility, Novelda NVA6100 Impulse Radar system's ability to detect objects behind obstacles, eliminates the need to clean lenses, thus ensuring cost savings for customers," concludes Kalsaeg. "In addition, Novelda saves costs and time for developers by supplying development kits, Radar modules and software, and providing development support for the entire range of available chips."
