The Radar Detector Deal

A radar detector (sometimes called a fuzz buster, the newest one called laser detector), is a passive electronic device. The users are motorists "to determine if their speed is being monitored by law enforcement agencies via a radar unit, and thereby, potentially avoiding prosecution for speeding. Only doppler radar-based devices can be detected — other speed measuring devices including those using ANPR, piezo sensors and VASCAR technology cannot be detected, while LIDAR devices require a different type of sensor. Most of today's radar detectors detect signals across a variety of wavelength bands — usually X, K and Ka (as well as Ku, in Europe, also recently approved for use in the U.S)." (Extract from the Wikipedia definition - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_detector.)

The popularity of radar devices changed basically during the decades. Radar signals were used first in research of military interest, then radar was used widely in the navigation, especially in the marine navigation.  The research and the results were secret in the 1940s and became part of the everyday life in the 60s. Today you find various popular products in the electronics stores open to the general public.

Radar detectors for motorists were developed nearly at the same time as police started to use radar gun to monitor drivers for speeding. Motorists started to use the small mobile devices to "discover" radar signals in due time...
