About Symeo
Symeo is a sensor technology company based in Neubiberg near Munich that develops and manufactures radar-based measuring systems for industrial applications. The product range includes 1D radar distance sensors (including LPR-1D, LPR-1D24, LPR-1DHP-291, LPR-1DHP-350) with measuring ranges from 0.5 m to 1,800 m and accuracies up to ±5 mm, as well as the Collision Control Center software for crane collision avoidance and the imaging Imaging Radar (AVR-QDM-110). The sensors operate on various frequency bands (24 GHz, 5,7–5,9 GHz, 57–64 GHz, 122 GHz) and are designed for harsh environmental conditions. Application areas are position detection, distance measurement, collision avoidance, and customized solutions. Customers include companies from metals/steel, bulk materials, container terminals, airports, intralogistics, crane construction, municipal facilities, infrastructure, and rail transport; documented users include the ÖBB, Georgsmarienhütte, and Holcim (Switzerland). According to the company, the systems are delivered worldwide; locations and markets in Europe and the USA are also mentioned.
