Zadar Labs has been named a CES Innovation Awards 2027 Honoree in Construction & Industrial Tech for Zadar360°, its 4D radar collision-warning system for industrial and commercial vehicles.
The system is designed for ports, warehouses, construction sites, mines and agricultural facilities, where heavy vehicles operate near people, other machines and fixed obstacles, often with poor visibility. Zadar Labs says radar sensing lets Zadar360° operate in darkness, rain, fog, dust and glare, conditions that can blind cameras and degrade lidar on working machines.
Zadar360° combines multiple Zadar 4D imaging radars with a central processing unit. Key features include fusing radar data from around the vehicle; tracking nearby objects; predicting the vehicle's path; and alerting the operator when a collision risk is real, which the company says reduces nuisance alarms.
The vehicle-agnostic system can be configured for forklifts, cranes, straddle carriers, loaders, haul trucks, buses and other heavy equipment, with warning zones set according to each machine's geometry and direction of travel. It can be installed as a retrofit or by an OEM and does not require a connection to the vehicle's existing electrical control systems. CES 2027 honorees will be showcased in Las Vegas in January.
