IWR6843ISK: Processing algorithms without a PC

Brian Johnson

Part Number: IWR6843ISK
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVEICBOOST,

Hello, I am looking to run the IWR6843ISK and MMWAVEICBOOST without a PC. Ideally it would be deployed in a patient's room and the data would be accessed through a web browser and mostly processed on the device, notifications would be sent to the cloud. Any recommendations on the hardware and software setup that would be required?

Hi Brian,

Since the ISK and ICBOOST do not have any ethernet or wifi connectivity, you will need some host to receive the data from the sensor (either through CANbus, UART, or SPI) and then send this to the cloud. An example of a suitable processor is the Beaglebone Black. It runs the linux operating system and has UART, SPI, USB, and more.

Out of curiosity, are you basing your development off of any demo featured in the Industrial Toolbox? Toolbox for reference: https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/node?node=AJoMGA2ID9pCPWEKPi16wg__VLyFKFf__LATEST
