The BERU f1systems Ground Speed Sensor is a non-contact Doppler radar speed sensor suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is designed to be mounted on a car to measure ground speed in situations where wheel speed sensors cannot be guaranteed to read true car speed, due to excessive wheel spin or lack of contact wit the ground.

The sensor works on all surfaces and is unaffected by surface type, and finish. It also is equally unaffected by wet and dry surfaces. The sensor can also be used as a stationary device to measure the speed of moving objects, and we are able to offer a power and display unit for such applications.

The output of the sensor is a pulse train, with its frequency proportional to speed, thus emulating a standard speed sensor and allowing it to be connected in the place of a wheel speed sensor, if desired. The sum of the number of pulses may also be used to determine distance. Optionally the output can be an analogue 0-5V signal or a user defined CAN message for direct connection to CAN bus.
