Steradian is a product based vertically integrated company focusing on 4D Imaging Radars. The product encompasses a state-of-the-art Transceiver with FMCW modulation capability in TSMC 28nm CMOS process and a proprietary Radar Signal processing Software Stack to generate readily integrable point cloud and tracked objects for sensor fusion.
Steradian has developed the world’s most compact 28nm CMOS Milli-meter wave Imaging Radar Chips (SVR4410 and SVR4414) to power our 4D Sensors. The Milli-meter Wave Antenna and Radar Processing Software when combined with this Radar IC enables a complete high performance Imaging Radar solution. Steradian Semiconductors has filed 14 patents (9 granted) covering various aspects of this product. The company has grown steadily and significantly over the last few years. With its strong team of more than 30 engineers, Steradian Semiconductors is bracing to support customers for volume production.
Steradian aims to provide real-time solutions to detect bridges, vehicle-under-the-bridge scenarios and manholes that is not possible with a conventional radar. We aim to provide true elevation, size/shape of the objects in real-time with low false alarm rates.
Our founding team are industry experts with 65 patents and 15
IEEE papers.
We have 30+ staff of experienced engineers who aim to
revolutionize
the usage if radar in real-time.
Precision Parking or Smart Docking in ports and airports that require manual guidance can be automated using our Imaging Radar, thereby improving parking efficiency at a lower cost. Consumer applications like Gesture recognition bring the power of Radar to consumer products as well.
Our radar signal processing software stack is architected to make use of the available compute platform in the best possible manner, in terms of frames-per-second (fps) and power consumption. The conventional techniques of MIMO Radars (including 4D FFT) require several TFLOPS and are quite impractical with commercially viable off the shelf processors for achieving 1 degree and better angular resolution.
Our patented techniques enable the use of available GPU or DSP platforms (off-the-shelf) for Imaging Radar application while providing >10K points in a single frame. This enables true elevation, size/shape of the objects in real-time with low false alarm rates. The algorithms are tightly knit with the on-PCB antenna arrangement (microstrip) and together deliver the best trade-off for hardware and software at a viable commercial point.
This architecture also opens new possibilities in the data processing engine following the point cloud generation. For some applications, the system demands the point cloud to be clustered, tracked, bifurcate static and dynamic objects and even classify the objects. All these requirements are handled much better by the open-processor approach that we have adopted. Customers are much free to adopt available processors and run the SW stack for various approaches to sensor fusion.
