The techniques of this disclosure relate to a detection device. The device includes a housing attached to an exterior portion of a vehicle and a printed circuit board. The device also includes a first sensor mounted to the printed circuit board and configured to detect first objects. The device also includes a second sensor mounted to the printed circuit board and configured to detect second objects different from the first objects. The second sensor detects the second objects based on radio frequency (RF) signals emitted by the second objects. The second objects are co-located with the first objects, and the second sensor detects the second objects when the first objects are undetected by the first sensor. The device improves a coverage of a radiation pattern of the antennas around a vehicle and reduces ADAS sensor system packaging costs.
