INTRODUCTION

UAM285 is a mid-to-high-end millimeter wave radar altimeter for drones, operating in the 24GHz-ISM band. It is widely used in aircraft, eVTOLs, and applications like landing and vertical guidance. It provides terrain-following data, unaffected by ground variations or harsh weather (wind, rain, fog), ensuring all-weather operation. Integrated self-checking enhances data reliability and safety.

Features：

Stable detection ≥3000m
The static clutter filtering technology is integrated, the data is stable, and the jump is prevented
Multiple interfaces of UART/CAN/RS232/RS422/RS485 are supported
Integrated software and hardware self-calibration function ensures reliable data output and meets the application of various complex environments.
IP67 protection grade shell is manufactured to adapt to high-speed, high-impact and high-vibration environments, which is suitable for most heavy UAV applications
Stable operation in rain, snow, humid fog, salt fog corrosion, sandstorm and other environments.

Application：

Aircraft, eVTOL and other fields, such as aircraft landing and UAV vertical guidance

	Core Upgrades, Comprehensive Performance Evolution With a detection range of ≥3000m, it unlocks ultra-long-distance scenarios like high-altitude inspections. At 6W power consumption (half of similar products), it minimizes power load, preserving drone battery life. A near-ground safety feature ensures stable detection at 0.3m, achieved through static clutter filtering and phase processing to suppress interference. Ultra-high precision of ±0.03m is achieved via multi-mode switching, balancing close-range accuracy and long-distance detection.
	Aviation Certification Compatibility Modular design with physical and electrical isolation prevents single-point failures. Hot-swappable modules comply with aviation standards for functional isolation and fault tolerance. Key modules are reinforced: the power unit operates at -40°C to +85°C, and the signal unit is resistant to electromagnetic interference, suitable for high-altitude environments.
	Safe, Reliable, and Accurate Terrain Following The UAM285 features built-in hardware and software self-checking functions to verify data accuracy, enhancing safety and reliability in complex environments. Unlike GPS altitude data, the UAM285 provides terrain-following height data, accurately reflecting ground contours regardless of terrain. Integrated with a 6-axis gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer, it monitors flight status and issues warnings for excessive tilt angles, ensuring optimal radar alignment with the ground.
	Strong Adaptability for Complex Environments Compared to traditional barometric altimeters, the millimeter-wave radar is unaffected by wind, rain, fog, or other harsh weather conditions, enabling all-weather, day-and-night operation. With an IP67-rated enclosure, the UAM285 is ideal for high-speed, high-impact, and high-vibration environments, suitable for heavy-duty drones. It performs reliably in rain, snow, fog, salt spray, and sandstorms.
	Seamless Integration with APM & PX4 As an official partner of APM and PX4, Nanoradar's drone radars are seamlessly compatible with these flight control platforms for plug-and-play functionality.
