Blighter are pleased to share that we have added a proprietary dynamic radar target tracker module to out integrator-friendly BlighterNexus AI-assisted connectivity and processing hub.
BlighterNexus Track is designed specifically for Blighter radars and instantaneously converts the target plot data from the electronic scanning radar into single tracks that show position, size, speed and heading of surface and low flying targets.
The tight integration of the new tracker with the radar’s signal processing unit has led to enhanced detection capabilities, reduced false alarm rates and a tracker that is much easier for operators and integrators to set-up and configure.

The tracker also uses probabilistic data association algorithms to reduce false track creation rates and improve probability of track formation.
BlighterNexus Track can run on any industrial-grade PC, as part of the BlighterNexus software suite, and features a web-based interface for easy remote configuration and monitoring. It is functionally compatible with Blighter’s existing third-party tracker application.
Mark Radford, co-founder and chief technology officer (CTO) says: “With BlighterNexus Track, our engineers have not only improved the all-in-one detect-track-classify capability of our radars, but have also simplified set-up and configuration to reduce training and operational costs for our customers.
“As a market leader, we will continue to innovate and provide-best-in-class mission critical radars and sensor fusion software for our customers in defence, homeland security, critical national infrastructure, and energy sectors worldwide.”
Blighter’s non-rotating, solid-state, low SWaP (size, weight and power) electronic scanning radars provide uninterrupted rapid surveillance over a wide area, detecting moving vehicles/vessels, persons (including ‘crawlers’) and near ground aerial threats at ranges of up to 32km. The radars’ compact and modular design enables rapid deployment on towers and vehicles, and as dismounted portable systems on tripods.
BlighterNexus Track is one of around thirty different licensable modules within the BlighterNexus Server, a groundbreaking software suite that simplifies radar to command and control (C2) system integration. It is designed to incorporate Blighter’s smart/cognitive ITAR-free 2D, 3D and 4D radars into their C2 systems.
In addition to the tracking function, there are sensor connector modules to allow low latency integration of cameras, radio direction finding (RDF) equipment for drone detection and other geo sensors. For integrators who want to fuse and cognitively assess data from multiple sensors, the Advanced Data Stream module allows all radar data to be flooded out of BlighterNexus into an external AI system if preferred.
