Abstract

A roofing system including: a steep slope roof deck; and a radar device installed on the steep slope roof deck, where the radar device includes: a radio wave transceiver, where the radio wave transceiver generates a generated radio wave, and where the radio wave transceiver receives a reflected radio wave from an object detected by the generate radio wave; a dielectric antenna in electrical communication with the radio wave transceiver, where the dielectric antenna emits the generated radio wave, where the dielectric antenna receives the reflected radio wave, and where the dielectric antenna transmits the reflected radio wave to the radio wave transceiver; a computing device in electrical communication with the radio wave transceiver, where the computing device includes: a processor, and a non-transitory storage storing software, where the software operates the computing device, and where the processor determines, based on the reflected radio wave, at least one of a distance separating the radar device and the object, a direction in which the object is moving, a velocity of the object, and an identify of the object.
