IMD-1100 Radar Front End Sensor for Motion Detection

InnoSenT’s IMD-1100 K-band radar front-end sensor without signal processing is suited for motion detection applications with high production volumes in the low-cost segment. Due to the efficient antenna design, InnoSenT significantly reduced the size of the IMD-1100 sensor with a small 20 mm x 15 mm x 2.7 mm package size. The CW radar modulation enables the detection of movement and the determination of velocity. The product has separate IF I/Q signal channels for the resolution of the direction of movement. People can be detected within a range of up to 15 meters. The antenna field of view is 72° horizontally and 36° vertically. The 24 GHz frequency band is standardized so that the sensor can be used worldwide without country-specific adaptations or product variants. The IMD-1100 is suitable for automated pick and place series production and is supplied in bulk and individual packs.

The IMD-1100 is ideally suited for integration in alarm systems, lighting elements, automatic door systems, and smart home devices. InnoSenT has achieved an extremely low price for a radar sensor without compromising quality. The combination of innovative design and attractive price make InnoSenT's product a compelling alternative for users of PIR or 10 GHz sensors. The technology change is easy with the radar front end due to the adapted application specifications like comparable field of view. The small dimensions make integration and retrofitting possible even in devices with limited space.

The IMD-1100 is part of the InnoSenT motion detection series, which offer additional functionality to improve the performance and efficiency of motion detectors at competitive prices.
