High-Performance RF and Digital Signal Processing
The Tidalloft instrument-grade RF signal generation and processing system guarantees rapid detection of smaller and more distant targets.
Software and AI Technology
Tidalloft develops RADAR software using advanced technologies such as NVidia CUDA, GPU-accelerated graphics, and AI/ML algorithms, ensuring exceptional performance and functionality.
Vertical Integration in Hardware Design
The RF, Analog, FPGA, and embedded designs of Tidalloft hardware were consolidated, strategically planned, and integrated with our software, resulting in a significant enhancement of the performance-to-cost ratio.
Real-World Testing for Real-World Impact
Tidalloft consistently tests the RADAR system in real-world environments, ensuring that the technology efforts are directed towards practical applications.
Market and Applications
Tidalloft’s software-defined architecture and customizable hardware/software stack enable rapid adaptation to diverse markets—from aviation to security to environmental monitoring — by tailoring performance, interfaces, and features to specific application needs.
Compact and Low Power RADAR Business
Tidalloft develops custom, low-power, and compact Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) RADAR systems, utilizing our advanced Pulse-Doppler signal processing technology stack and top-performing beamforming ICs. Our systems primarily operate in the X-band or Ku-band, and in collaboration with our partner startup company, also in the S-band, C-band, and Ka-band.
Our RADAR designs are tailored for applications in aviation, weather monitoring, smart cities, environmental research, and defense. We begin by collaborating closely with customers to understand their mission needs and deliver fully integrated, end-to-end RADAR solutions. To mitigate the project risk, we provide demonstrations utilizing our proven experimental RADAR platform, ensuring all engagements are grounded in real-world capabilities.
In addition to new system development, Tidalloft also supports and licenses technology for customers to upgrade legacy RADAR platforms through our phased array beamforming, advanced signal processing, and data visualization modules.
