Radar is a detection technology that is based on radio waves. Being based on a non-visual technology, radar has a lot to offer in surveillance. Security radar works well in many situations where other surveillance technologies may fail, such as in poor lighting, darkness, and fog. Radar is also stable in many situations where video surveillance with analytics software are likely to create false alarms, for example, when there are moving shadows or lights in the scene, in bad weather, or when there are raindrops or insects on the device.
Why use radar in surveillance?
- Reliable in low-visibility conditions
- Low false alarm rate
- Integrated analytics
- Offers surveillance with privacy

Create a COMBINED Surveillance Systems
Where premises are harder to monitor and quick reactions are necessary to prevent crimes, the Axis radar detectors can be combined with other surveillance systems such as Axis Cameras and Axis Horn Speakers. Radar devices are commonly combined with visual cameras for identification of individuals. This is especially effective with PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras, which can track and identify persons or vehicles based on their exact geographical position provided by the radar. Radar and audio are also a good combination where visual identification either isn’t allowed or isn’t prioritized. A deterring audio message may very well stop an intruder detected by the radar
