Radar That Sees Through Walls Built In Garage

szczys writes: Building radar in his garage is nothing new to Greg Charvat. He has a PhD in this stuff and has literally written the book (and a University course) on building your own radar system. This time around it's Phased-Array Radar. This is more than just judging the speed of a baseball or Ferrari. This rig can actually see through walls. Greg uses the example of a soda can to illustrate the quality and resolution possible from this type of system.

I think the writer is saying on average people are more likely to build with plywood or drywall in their garage instead of less permissive materials like brick, concrete, or metal.

So, statistically speaking, a radar system is more effective against walls built in a garage than walls built outside of a garage.

As usual, the article may provide clarification, but I've found I can avoid the trouble of reading them by simply making wild assumptions.

walls that were not built in a garage ?

Can it also see through walls that were not built in a garage?
