Finally, @TNP99999, the first precise radar with both direction and ranging. @Public, This is a showcase of how a radar can be made. Works best in space but I want to shows you its downsides.

@allenxch There are mainly two scanning medium, powder and PHOT. Powder scanner is far smaller but it can only detect the angles of obstacles, therefore you can only install one turret at the same location of the scanner. PHOT can detect both angle and distance but it is space intensive and very hard to make it accurate. However, it is possible to install multiple turrets with one scanner.

@miner_sd, since TPT's object has smooth surface, causing the PHOT to reflect away, a larger receiver is needed to collect a more accurate image. But it is possible to make it smaller.

Just realize I forget to set the gravity to none when I copy&paste the update content, now it will not miss due to vertical gravity.

Surprise update, There might be another update in a few days. Too tired to answer anything now. X_X

is there a way the reciever could be compacted into a smaller (say, self contained) system?

if you make it write with a permanent material rather than BRAY and let it scan for a minute or so, then turn the material in the display into CLNE and set the CLNE's ctype to SAND you can approximate the structure of the terrain
