Product description: SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout - A111 distance sensor module - for Raspberry Pi - SparkFun SEN-16826
Precision distance sensor from SparkFun in the form of a 60 GHz radar - SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout with A111 chip. It provides a single-chip solution for pulsed coherent rad ar (PCR), comes with an integrated antenna and supports an SPI interface with clock rates up to 50 MHz. In addition to distance measurement, it also enables gesture, motion, and speed detection designs at distances up to two meters. The module is designed to connect to the Raspberry Pi.
The manufacturer has prepared a detailed user guide that makes it significantly easier to get started with the sensor. Among other things, you will find a description of the most important components, connection instructions and useful downloads. Check it out!

SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout - radar or sensor
The SparkFun Pulsed Radar Breakout from SparkFun is a distance sensor module. While it's not a storm radar or precipitation radar, it allows you to do a lot of other interesting applications. Its technology is also a bit different than that found in standard ultrasonic or infrared sensors. In addition, an Acconeer application has been developed for the radar : Developer, a visualization tool written in Python that demonstrates real-time data collection.
