Sisir Radar Private Ltd, led by Tapan Misra, developed a car-installable, mobile SAR for surveillance, potentially replacing larger, vulnerable radars.

Sisir Radar Private Ltd, a space sector startup, has successfully developed a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) that can be installed on a car for surveillance purposes. This innovation, developed by Tapan Misra, Founding Director and Chief Scientist of the company and former Director at the Space Applications Centre of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), has the potential to replace conventional, large-sized surveillance radars that are more susceptible to attacks. The mobile SAR radar, which has picked up signatures at 1.5 km distance, could offer a more secure and versatile option for surveillance operations.
