As the number of IoT devices increases, managing them all to keep online, secure, updated with the latest firmware, and remotely available, at all times, even when deployed behind firewalls and NATs, becomes quite the task. While quite a number of solution exists to some of these problems, they all usually have challenges like; the
Although radar is typically associated with scanning the sky, it is also used for underground purposes. Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is utilized to send signals beneath the surface and analyze their return to determine the presence of buried objects, similar to locating or identifying distant aircraft by detecting radar echoes. This technology can be constructed using
