Got some breadboardable electronics and a twosome extra umber buttocks lying around ? Why not use them to build your very own Doppler radar ?

MIT ’s OPENCOURSEWARE , the schooltime ’s open Education Department enterprise , offersa free on-line course and resource materialsthat will guide you through the full process , while educating you on the finer points of radar engineering . Your Folgers - hackwon’t be knock-down enough to track hastiness , but it ’ll do just fine as a DIY speed indicator , as the television up top demonstrates .
