Innovative technologies to detect small objects at large distances and with high precision are increasingly demanded to fulfill the safety requirements in helicopter/aeronautics applications. In this context, the emerging technology of gallium nitride (GaN) can allow to develop more precise detection systems with respect to the commercial solutions, because of a higher power, efficiency and components robustness. GaN technology is strategic also for power electronics applications.
