Come il DINFO ha contribuito a trasformare il radar da strumentazione militare a sensore per usi civili

  • Massimiliano Pieraccini

Radar research at the University of Florence began with pioneers such as Nello Carrara and evolved through decades of innovation in electronic engineering. Key developments include medical ultrasound, automotive anticollision radar, and meteorological radar. In the 2000s, researchers pioneered Ground-Based Synthetic Aperture Radar (GBSAR) for monitoring landslides and infrastructure, later commercialized worldwide. Recent work focuses on SAR systems mounted on drones for environmental and cultural heritage monitoring.
