Live Aircraft Radar
See what's flying overhead — on your desk.
BBBRadar is a small standalone radar that shows real aircraft near you in real time, on a glowing round display. No phone, no app, no subscription — just plug it in.
What it does
BBBRadar pulls live flight data over your WiFi and plots real aircraft flying near your home — their position, type and altitude — on a sweeping radar display. It updates every 30 seconds and shows the nearest aircraft, so at a glance you can see that Airbus, Cessna or glider passing overhead. It's the flight radar you'd normally pull up on your phone, turned into an ambient object that just sits on your desk and does its thing.
Real live aircraft
Genuine flights near you, refreshed every 30 seconds — not a simulation.
Retro radar display
A glowing 240×240 round screen with a sweeping beam, aircraft type and altitude.
Plug-and-play setup
Connect it to your WiFi from your phone in a couple of minutes. No app, no account.
Updates itself
New features and fixes arrive automatically over WiFi — it keeps getting better.
Completely standalone
No phone, computer or subscription needed. Just power and WiFi, running on its own.
Compact desk piece
Small enough for any desk or shelf — an ambient talking point for aviation fans.
