DESCRIPTION:First vehicular radars saw the light of day at the turn of the 
 millennium in premium cars like the\nMercedes S-class or the BMW 7 series.
  During the radar generations brought in the market since then\nthe perfor
 mance and capability has steadily improved. Since several years a novel sp
 ecimen of radar\ndevices saw the light of day in the category of so-called
  imaging radars. First imaging radars were not\nworth their name with a ma
 ximum number of detections per scan below 1000\, resulting in 2D pictures\
 nin the size of a small post stamp.\nMeanwhile\, with some good will\, tra
 ffic scenarios recorded with a high-end imaging radar\, can be\ninterprete
 d by a 3D point cloud representation with sufficient realism. For a fusion
  of imaging radar\npoint clouds with high-resolution camera systems there 
 is still a long way to go due to the obviously\nvery high gap in resolutio
 n capability. While radar systems in the current allocated frequency range
 \nfrom 76 to 81 GHz are rather weatherproof and have a very good instantan
 eous speed information\,\ntheir horizontal and vertical resolution capabil
 ity is rather poor compared to a e.g. 8 Megapixel camera.\nRecently some n
 ew research results appeared that have the potential to improve the radar 
 resolution\ncapability significantly and thus bring imaging radars roughly
  on par with video sensors.\nThis talk will lead you through the existing 
 toolkit of new\, innovative radar technologies and identifies\npossible di
 rections for further improvement potential.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr.-Ing. Martin
