Special Notice NAICS 334511

This U.S. patented tag technology by scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory enhances the visibility of objects to vehicle radar systems by amplifying and retransmitting radar signals, thereby enabling earlier and more reliable detection to help prevent collisions particularly in applications like autonomous vehicles, transportation, defense, and industrial automation. The Challenge: Modern vehicles, especially those with autonomous driving features or driver-assistance systems, rely heavily on radar to detect nearby objects. However, radar systems struggle with: Small or non-metallic objects like bicycles, motorcycles, pedestrians, or animals. Objects with a low radar cross-section, meaning they dont reflect radar signals well. Poor weather or visibility conditions, which reduce radar accuracy even further. Because of this, important objects may not be detected until its too lateputting lives at risk and limiting the safety capabilities of smart vehicles. How it Works: When a radar-equipped vehicle sends out signals to detect whats ahead, the tag receives those signals, filters and strengthens them using built-in electronics, and then sends them back out. This makes the obje...
