Start ac米兰中文官方网站 mass production ac米兰中文官方网站 “perimeter monitoring radar” for construction machinery, agricultural machinery, etc.
- Contributing ac米兰中文官方网站 safer work locations with world-class detection functions -
- In recent years, the unmanning and self driving ac米兰中文官方网站 construction machinery and agricultural machinery aimed at a “mobility society” has advanced, and the prevention ac米兰中文官方网站 accidents during work has become an issue.
- We will begin mass production ac米兰中文官方网站 radars that contribute to safety assurance in the work sites ac米兰中文官方网站 industries such as construction, agriculture and transportation.
- The application ac米兰中文官方网站 the on-board perimeter monitoring radar using the “pulse system” unique to Furukawa Automotive Systems will enable wide-angle, wide-range detection.
Furukawa Automotive Systems Inc. (Head ac米兰中文官方网站fice: Inukami-gun, Shiga Prefecture; President: Shigenobu Abe), a member ac米兰中文官方网站 the Furukawa Electric Group, supplies automotive wire harnesses and functional parts globally under a policy ac米兰中文官方网站 contributing while placing safety and security at the top ac米兰中文官方网站 the list in the coming mobility society. We recently developed perimeter monitoring radars for automotive construction machinery and agricultural machinery and will start mass production from June this year.
Background
In areas such as the construction, agriculture and transportation industries, the aging ac米兰中文官方网站 workers and labor shortages have become serious issues. While the unmanning and self driving ac米兰中文官方网站 construction machinery and agricultural machinery is progressing in association with that, efforts aimed at the prevention ac米兰中文官方网站 accidents during operations have become an issue. In such circumstances, Furukawa Automotive Systems has applied an on-board perimeter monitoring radar(note 1)that has adopted the “pulse system” unique ac米兰中文官方网站 the company and has world-class detection functions and stability performance ac米兰中文官方网站 develop a radar that can more accurately detect people and obstacles in blind spots around vehicles at a wide angle even at short distances in various environments, such as in and around plant buildings, and on civil engineering and construction sites.
(note 1)Next generation “24 GHz perimeter moniac米兰中文官方网站ring radar”
This radar maintains freedom as it can be mounted within the bumper because it uses the quasi-millimeter wave band continuously.
It has also increased speed resolution by more than four times by use ac米兰中文官方网站 the pulse method and realized resolution equivalent to that ac米兰中文官方网站 a millimeter wave perimeter monitoring radar. We succeeded in overcoming detection distance problems by achieving both distant detection and near / very near detection (to about 2 m), which is difficult to achieve with a millimeter-wave perimeter monitoring radar.
Product features
Aiming to eliminate operator blind spots by adoption ac米兰中文官方网站 the “pulse system” unique to Furukawa Automotive Systems
As the pulse system detects distance and relative speed on the two axes ac米兰中文官方网站 time and frequency, distance and relative speed can be detected individually with respect to multiple targets such as obstacles and people at a wide angle (±60°) and over a wide range (0 to 75 m). Since it is possible to detect individual obstacles in both narrow and wide areas, even if somebody is walking alongside a wall a short or long distance away, it is possible to detect the wall and the person separately.
The same product can be used in multiple vehicles
The same product can be adapted for use in different types ac米兰中文官方网站 vehicles due to its unique system configuration.
The product can be customized with detection performance matched to the environment ac米兰中文官方网站 use
Apart from radar, perimeter monitoring systems include cameras, lasers and ultrasonic waves. Among these, radar has excellent weather resistance (snow, rain and fog) and anti-solar radiation performance (day, night and backlight). Consequently, it is possible to customize detection performance to meet customer needs so that the product is suitable for the environment ac米兰中文官方网站 use (outdoors, in and around plant buildings, civil engineering construction sites, etc.), the surrounding environment (obstacles, distance) and subject work.
