Millimetre -wave radar is mainly used as a vehicle onboard sensor for monitoring the front of a car and contributes to the spread of ADAS (Advanced Driving Assist System) such as Active Cruise Control and Pre -Crash Safety. In addition, it is considered that when compared with visible camera and LiDAR (laser imaging detection and ranging) that have the similar sensing function, it is superior in environmental robustness and velocity measurement. Furthermore, since it can be mounted inside the emblem or bumper, the fl exibility of installation and design is also a feature of millimetre -wave radar.
