TOMSK, Sep 30 – RIA Tomsk. Scientists of Tomsk State University of Control Systems and Radioelectronics (TUSUR) will develop radars which will be used for unmanned "KAMAZ" and will allow them "to see" through smoke and fog, the press service of the university reported on Friday.

It is explained that tests of a sample of unmanned "KAMAZ" started in the summer of 2015. Its "sight" was based on video cameras, and it has become clear that the system isn't suitable for exact assessment of distance to other participants of the movement and their speed, can't qualitatively work at poor visibility (during snow, rain, fog or in smoke from wildfires). It was supposed to solve these problems by means of a radar-location.

"Developers of unmanned "KAMAZ" addressed to the Russian higher education institutions and the enterprises with the offer on collaboration in this direction and development of "Svyaz" design office of TUSUR was the most corresponding to the level of solvable tasks and the purposes of the project", – is said in the message.

It is specified that the majority of other modern radar sensors weren't rather effective. They inaccurate recognized the purpose, could "not notice" objects or not always worked quickly enough, because of low-speed processors. Besides, it wasn't always possible to get access to basic data of the radar for deeper integration with the autopilot.

According to the press service, residents of Tomsk offered original algorithms of processing of signals. They allow to receive the high-detailed image, and at the same time the Tomsk technology doesn't demand to increase the radar sizes – the device will be the size about the smartphone that is important for the customer. And the autopilot will be able "to see" even at strong fog or smoke.

It is noted that TUSUR experts have to create the radar model by 2017. After that it has to undergo testing on the experimental self-driving car. If tests are successful, the compact prototype of the radar will be created, and will begin the preparation for starting of its mass production.
