Team, do we have any examples of using UART + DMA for transmitting point cloud in the OOB demo ?

Thanks

Greg,

I do not think we have anything that fits this, would you mind sharing more info on what exactly you are looking for, and what use case we are hoping to use it for?

Best Regards,
Alec

Hi Alec,

Have a couple of customers that want to do some additional tasks on the R4 within frame time, and need the extra Mhz of the MCU versus spending time sending point cloud data via blocking UART calls. They are already running the UART at 3Mbps.

Thanks.

Greg,

Understood. From my investigation, the code for testing the UART DMA in the UART driver should be sufficient, but we can investigate adding this as a basic demo in the future.

Best Regards,
Alec
