Pocket Radar utilizes very similar microwave signal emission and detection methods found in the Doppler speed radar guns used by law enforcement agencies. The device measures 4.7 by 2.3 inches (119 by 58 mm) and weighs 4.5 ounces (130 g) when equipped with two AAA batteries. It operates at the 24.125 GHz K-Band frequency and can measure speeds ...
A radar speed gun, also known as a radar gun, speed gun, or speed trap gun, is a device used to measure the speed of moving objects. It is commonly used by police to check the speed of moving vehicles while conducting traffic enforcement , and in professional sports to measure speeds such as those of baseball pitches , [ 1 ] tennis serves , and ...
