AI Contract Overview

This contract offers a technology licensing opportunity for a patented tag, developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, designed to enhance the detection of objects by vehicle radar systems. The RadarTag technology receives, amplifies, and retransmits radar signals, making tagged objects such as bicycles, pedestrians, or roadside equipment much more visible to radar-equipped vehicles. This solution is particularly valuable in addressing key challenges faced by modern vehicles, including the difficulty of detecting small, non-metallic, or low-reflective objects, as well as maintaining accuracy in poor weather or low-visibility conditions. By amplifying radar reflections, the tag significantly extends detection range and ensures objects are reliably identified, improving safety and response times. RadarTag works universally with any standard automotive radar system without the need for special integration or modifications, and its compact, lightweight form factor allows for easy attachment to a wide variety of items. The technology is positioned for broad application across automotive and autonomous vehicles, commercial transportation fleets, defense, industrial robotics, and consumer safety products. The development status is at Technology Readiness Level 6, indicating a prototype has been demonstrated in a relevant environment. Los Alamos National Laboratory, represented by Triad as a DOE contractor, is seeking licensing partners and provides both exclusive and non-exclusive agreements for commercial exploitation. Interested parties can find detailed information and contact the technology licensing team directly for further engagement, with a proposal deadline in late October 2025. The contract is not seeking external development services, but rather aims to promote adoption and integration of this innovation through licensing.

Full Description

This U.S. patented tag technology by scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory enhances the visibility of objects to vehicle radar systems by amplifying and retransmitting radar signals, thereby enabling earlier and more reliable detection to help prevent collisions — particularly in applications like autonomous vehicles, transportation, defense, and industrial automation.

The Challenge:

Modern vehicles, especially those with autonomous driving features or driver-assistance systems, rely heavily on radar to detect nearby objects. However, radar systems struggle with:

Small or non-metallic objects like bicycles, motorcycles, pedestrians, or animals.
Objects with a low radar cross-section, meaning they don’t reflect radar signals well.
Poor weather or visibility conditions, which reduce radar accuracy even further.

Because of this, important objects may not be detected until it’s too late—putting lives at risk and limiting the safety capabilities of smart vehicles.

How it Works:

When a radar-equipped vehicle sends out signals to detect what’s ahead, the tag receives those signals, filters and strengthens them using built-in electronics, and then sends them back out. This makes the object carrying the tag — such as a bicycle, person, or piece of roadside equipment — appear larger and easier to detect on the radar. The design of the tag ensures that the signals are amplified without causing interference, so it works smoothly with any standard automotive radar system. As a result, vehicles can recognize tagged objects from farther away.

Key Advantages:

Universal compatibility: Functions with any radar-equipped vehicle regardless of brand or radar type—no special software or calibration needed.
Compact and lightweight: Small enough to be worn or attached to bikes, helmets, backpacks, traffic cones, or roadside equipment.
Improved object detection: Makes small or low-visibility objects (like bicycles, pedestrians, or animals) easier for vehicle radar systems to detect.
Extended detection range: Increases how far away a vehicle can "see" an object, giving more time to react and avoid collisions.
All-weather reliability: Works effectively in low-light, fog, rain, or other conditions where visual sensors (like cameras) may fail.

Market Applications:

Automotive & Autonomous Vehicles
Commercial Transportation & Fleet Vehicles
Defense & Security
Industrial Automation & Robots
Consumer Safety & Outdoor Gear
