TII’s DERC Partners with Brazilian Technology Disruptor Radaz on Airborne Multi-band Interferometric Microwave Imaging Project

TII · Mar 17

TII's DERC, in partnership with Brazilian firm RADAZ, has obtained the first microwave images from their joint project on Airborne Multi-band Interferometric Microwave Imaging (A(MI)2) in Abu Dhabi. The project uses a new multiband Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) operating in P, L, and C frequency bands to generate terrain images. The system, which can be mounted on commercial drones, also integrates Ground Penetrating Radar capability to detect buried objects. Why it matters: This technology enhances remote sensing capabilities in the region, enabling applications in agriculture, infrastructure monitoring, and search and rescue operations.

Project NATHR-G1 - The Story behind the Innovative Solution for a more Humane World

TII · Mar 17

A team led by the Technology Innovation Institute (TII) in Abu Dhabi has developed NATHR-G1, a ground penetrating radar for detecting landmines and unexploded ordnance. The project, involving researchers from Colombia, Germany, Sweden, and Switzerland, builds on earlier work using radar to detect buried objects. NATHR-G1 incorporates machine learning for advanced signal processing and object identification. Why it matters: This humanitarian application of AI and robotics based in the UAE could significantly reduce casualties from landmines and other explosive remnants of war.
