Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1642, IWR1443, IWR1443BOOST
Is it possible to detect elevation also along with azimuth from the IWR1642BOOST??
I understand that for 360 view for a drone, I require a matrix of RX sensors. The image of IWR1642 looks like it has only 1 array of sensors. So i assume it can detect objects in azimuth but not in elevation. Am I correct? If so, My question is in 2 levels:
1. Is there any other product from TI or others using TI sensors which can help my drone to see in full 360 degrees, (azimuth and elevation)
2. If I have to make my hardware for this, What is the easy way out?? Can I arrange 3-4 IWR1642BOOST in some way to get elevation also?? If so, Can you point me in correct direction for this approach.
I am unable to find any info about elevation in any of the IWR documents or videos. The only thing I got is to mount the sensor in different directions to get elevation information. If I have missed something, kindly let me know that also.
