IWR6843ISK-ODS: Point Cloud Density Output

Part Number: IWR6843ISK-ODS

Hi Team,

Working on a project for human gait analysis and pose classification using IWR6843ISK-ODS. Modified the ROS package to be compatible with 3D people counting. 
Used the cfg parameters for LRPD, but the number of points cloud is not dense. How can the point cloud be more dense, so that will help for human gate analysis. Please What should be edited in the cfg parameter to achieve that.

  • Hello Mark,

    The LRPD configuration is not optimized for the ODS antenna.Which default lab binary are you using, regular (wall mounted not ceiling mounted) 3D people counting? Please try using the included configuration in that folder, copied below.

    C:\ti\mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_9_0\labs\people_counting\68xx_3D_people_counting\chirp_configs

    Regards,
