Nordic Radar Solutions speaks to The Innovation Platform<\/em>, about their commitment to producing the next-generation of advanced radar-based systems.<\/h2>\n

Based in Eg\u00e5, Denmark, Nordic Radar Solutions<\/a> is a company committed to developing next-generation advanced radar-based systems for a range of military and civilian applications. It all started ten years ago with a discussion between the founders Per Schmock (CEO) and Torsten Haber Leth Elmkj\u00e6r (CTO), both being involved in radar system technology from a practical and development point of view.<\/p>\n

As a former F-16 fighter pilot and later test pilot, Schmock began dreaming of a target scoring system that would enable a faster and more accurate feedback during the various test drills, saving time and money. In an intense dialogue with radar expert and PhD Elmkj\u00e6r, they began sketching a whole new radar system<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the very beginning, we asserted that existing radar technology was not adequate.<\/p>\n

We carefully analysed what was already available on the market and quickly decided to build our own radar system from scratch,\u201d Elmkj\u00e6r recalls.<\/p>\n

So, by thinking outside of the box, the two founders started listing various requirements, and they made a clear and fruitful division of labour. Having a PhD in advanced radar technology, Elmkj\u00e6r was busy with the technical development of the core radar system, while Schmock \u2013 holding an MBA from Henley Business School<\/a> \u2013 led the company as CEO.<\/p>\n

Both take great pride in developing the radar system. \u201cIn this design we have made virtually no compromises, so we can claim that this radar has been built entirely for our applications,\u201d Elmkj\u00e6r said.<\/p>\n

In the following article, you will see how one core radar system can be adapted to serve in three essential and very different sectors. Yet while they may be different, they all have one thing in common: the need for fast acquisition of detailed highly quality data.<\/p>\n

Airport safety<\/h3>\n

Passenger air traffic has grown at an unprecedented rate during the last five years, a trend that was expected to continue into the future, with regions nearly doubling their passenger traffic by 2020. That was, of course, until the COVID-19 pandemic<\/a> became global. But all forecasts beyond the current crisis indicate that the trend is only temporarily stalled.<\/p>\n

The challenges, however, remain: airport authorities and airlines are increasingly facing safety threats to passengers, crews, and aircraft caused by<\/p>\n
