- Description
The image shows the GINGER ground penetration radar (GPR) mounted on a rover mockup during tests at the planetary test site GEROMS of CNES. The GPR is one of the innovative space technologies that are used in the EU Handheld Operational Demining System (HOPE) project. HOPE uses three different types of detector: the GPR, a microwave radiometer and the classic metal detector, with the aim of detecting any kind of anti-personnel mine in any kind of terrain.
