Unveiling and Dedication of IEEE Radar Historic Milestone

Evening reception, hosted by Hensoldt.

Hensoldt), and speeches by Peter Knott (Fraunhofer
FHR): "H€ulsmeyer's heritage--radar technology today"
and Wolfgang Koch (Fraunhofer FKIE): "AI in advanced
sensing--gateway to digitalization," lawyer and essayist
Yvonne Hofstetter: "Will they know everything? Reflections and perspectives," and Ryszard Bil, CTO of Hensoldt: "Industry and radar--History, present, and future
challenges." These were interspersed with delightful
music from a string quartet.
Throughout the evening there was a live radar display
of aircraft target tracks over the whole of Germany from
Hensoldt's passive radar system TwInvis. This exploits
existing broadcast and communications transmissions

rather than requiring a dedicated transmitter, and is an
excellent example of state-of-the-art radar techniques and
technology. We can imagine that if H€
ulsmeyer himself
had been able to witness this, it is something of which he
would have approved.

the event and to all who participated, and especially to
Hensoldt for their generous support. The photographs are
