October 21, 2021 – Crowd Supply, the leading product development platform connecting hardware creators with early adopters and enthusiastic backers, announces the launch of KrakenSDR, a phase-coherent software-defined radio (SDR) featuring five channels and automatic calibration hardware. KrakenSDR offers a 4.5V bias tee on each port, enabling simple interfaces with external devices. With built-in coherence synchronization, KrakenSDR supports a range of applications including beamforming, passive radar, and radio direction finding.

KrakenSDR, developed by KrakenRF and launched with support from Crowd Supply, features a low-noise design and rugged, CNC-milled enclosure. Building off the previous KerberosSDR, KrakenSDR adds autocalibration and tracking of intermittent signals to the foundation of KerberosSDR software. Designed to run on a Raspberry Pi 4, KrakenSDR’s core DSP software is open source, while its direction-finding Android software is free for non-commercial use. KrakenSDR is suitable for use by both amateurs and professionals, helping astronomers to increase image resolution and enabling RF engineers to locate the sources of illegal broadcasts.
