8327 Kestrel Radar Sensors is launching the K2 Pico FlexAR Series of radar products here this week. This includes the K2 Pico Flex processor and the K2 Pico IO and Communications modules, accompanied by a powerful software tool called Kestrel Workbench that gives integrators more control than ever before over how radars will operate within a finished solution. In addition, the K2 series offers an OEM LED Sign Kit offering unique plug-and-play operation and versatility.

Kestrel says it has designed the K2 Pico Radar to provide 150 MIPS of processing power, making it one of the most powerful radars on the market today. It runs a real-time operating system allowing clients to do away with fixed modes of operation so that integrators can create advanced and highly marketable traffic management solutions with minimal effort.
