Mach  /  RadX

Your machines
need to see.
Through anything.

Mach RadX is a patent-pending phased array radar built for autonomous off-highway machines. It gives your platform environmental awareness and obstacle detection in dust, debris, dense vegetation, and darkness — conditions where cameras reach their limits.

The Problem

Autonomy fails when cameras hit their limit.

Most autonomous programs don't fail because of software. They fail because the perception hardware wasn't built for the environment. Cameras perform well in lab conditions. Off-highway machines don't operate in labs.

Every condition below has stopped a real autonomous program. RadX was built to keep running through all of them.

The commercial risk is real. Every false stop costs throughput. Every missed obstacle is a liability event. Every perception system that fails in field conditions puts your autonomy program timeline — and your OEM roadmap — at risk. Your customers can't find operators. Your machines need to run without them. And your competitors are already integrating autonomy.

Dust & Particulate

Agricultural fields, construction sites, and mining haul roads generate enough airborne debris to reduce camera effective range to near zero within seconds of activity starting.

Dense Vegetation

Foliage, crop canopy, and undergrowth defeat optical systems entirely. Obstacles — personnel, posts, equipment — sitting behind plant matter are invisible to vision-only platforms.

Rain, Fog & Snow

Precipitation introduces scatter, noise, and sustained occlusion across the camera array. Effective detection range collapses under severe weather — exactly when safer autonomous operation matters most.

Darkness & Glare

Night operations, harvest shifts, and low-angle sun create photometric conditions where vision-based detection becomes unreliable. Radar is unaffected by ambient light in any direction.

The Solution

Sees through what
cameras can't.

RadX is a complete, integrated phased array radar compute platform — not a sensor that needs a separate box. Patent-pending electronic beam steering, onboard processing, and fusion-ready output ship as a single ruggedized unit your engineering team can mount and integrate through CAN or Ethernet.

// Competitive moat: Patent-pending phased array architecture. No moving parts. No royalty-bearing component dependencies. No calibration drift under continuous load. Built to integrate into your machine's BOM permanently.

What It Enables

Four operational capabilities your autonomy program needs.

01

Detect Every
Obstacle

Detect stationary and moving obstacles — personnel, equipment, berm edges, terrain changes — at operational distances regardless of ambient visibility. Radar propagates through dust, rain, fog, and total darkness without performance degradation.

250m+ Range Multi-Target 0 lux required Full dust tolerance
02

See Through
Vegetation

Radar propagates through crop canopy and heavy undergrowth at full detection confidence. Obstacles within or behind dense plant cover are detected at operational distances regardless of optical occlusion — critical for agricultural and forestry autonomy.

03

Fuse Every
Modality

RadX provides a physics-independent sensing modality for the Mach perception stack. Agreement between radar and camera raises detection confidence. Divergence triggers appropriate safety responses. One platform, every environment, every condition.

Environment

IP67 protection, −40°C to +85°C operating range, heavy equipment vibration rating. RadX is engineered for continuous deployment in the industrial field environments that end programs built on consumer-grade hardware.

In the Field

Production deployments.
Conditions that matter.

RadX runs in production on autonomous vehicles today — not pilots, not demos. These are operating deployments in the environments where visibility is the challenge.

Agriculture · Harvest Operations
Autonomous Row Crop Operations

Autonomous harvesters and sprayers operating through sustained dust events that reduce optical camera range to near zero. RadX maintains full obstacle detection while camera systems fall back to reduced operation — keeping machines running through the exact conditions where harvest throughput is most critical.

Haul Road & Pit Autonomy

Autonomous equipment operating on haul roads and in pit environments where blast residue, crusher dust, and equipment exhaust maintain sustained near-zero visibility conditions throughout active shift operations.
