Ask any engineer at the Raymarine Merrimack R&D plant. A marine radar with the right microprocessor can determine the speed of multiple boats very accurately. As DR points out, the LIDAR is not accurate on water.

I saw a number of state troopers on 106 standing outside their cars aiming at cars with what looks like a miniature vdeo camera. It is definitely not a radar detector. Can Skip tell us what it might be?
