radar display
Sweeping detection monitor
A radar display is the screen or monitor showing information from a radar system—typically a circular scope with a sweeping line that reveals detected objects as blips or returns.
Air traffic controllers watch radar displays to track aircraft; ship captains use them to spot other vessels and coastlines.
The classic green-on-black circular display remains iconic, though modern systems often use color and computer-generated graphics.
