Symeo will exhibit its advanced radar technology at InnoTrans 2026 at Messe Berlin, located in Hall 27, Booth 210. The company will demonstrate how its radar solutions, already proven in harsh conditions like bulk material handling and crane safety, can be effectively deployed to enhance safety and resilience in rail infrastructure and rolling stock applications. Visitors will have the opportunity to explore a live demonstrator showcasing contactless vibration measurement using a 120 GHz radar sensor, alongside the AVR-QDM-110 evaluation kit. Furthermore, Thomas Hörl-Weinhold, VP Industry Business Development, and Senior Field Application Engineer Hakim Kolsi will present "Radar as a Key Technology: Challenges and Opportunities" at the Speakers' Corner (Hall 27, Beta Level 3–4) on September 25, 2026, from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Customizable Sensor Systems for Rail Development
Because the wealth of data derived from imaging radar signals requires sensor systems to be individually tailored and software-optimized for specific use cases, Symeo offers the AVR-QDM-110 Eval Kit. Featuring a powerful Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radar evaluation platform, this highly flexible and configurable sensor array supports customized development partnerships. It has already been successfully tested in several customer projects, including railroad crossing monitoring, proving its capability to adapt to the specialized needs of modern railway environments.
Additional Context
This section provides technological and market background not explicitly detailed in the original release.
Modern rail networks are increasingly seeking sensor technologies that offer superior performance in adverse weather and challenging environmental conditions where traditional optical cameras or LiDAR systems might struggle. Imaging radar systems generate high-resolution data that can accurately detect target distance, velocity, and azimuth regardless of dust, fog, snow, or darkness. By providing a robust, configurable MIMO-based evaluation platform, sensor manufacturers like Symeo significantly reduce the barrier to entry for rail OEMs and system integrators. This approach accelerates the development and deployment of advanced perception systems, autonomous track monitoring, and highly resilient surveillance for critical infrastructure like level crossings.
