Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of the work being conducted by the Australian Centre for Field Robotics (ACFR) and the CRC for mining technology and equipment (CMTE) into sensors and systems for real-time environment imaging. Radar is perhaps the only sensor capable of performing imaging tasks in environment where high levels of dust, water vapour, and rain must be contended with. Methods of visualizing the radar data for various applications are presented.
