Hi all,
So I've been looking for parts for a long range (miles) detection system for use in a weather radar, but I couldn't really find anything. I was thinking about using high power RF, but I don't think I want to tangle with the FCC 0.o
Anyways, so after radar was blown out of the water, I figured about using LiDAR.
I can make high powered lasers +2W. But it's just the case of detecting the reflection from a distance. Another problem would be using it during the day let alone using it for detection of around 5 miles.
If anyone has any advice on how I can achieve long range detection, that would be really nice
Budget of around $200
Thanks!
