AWR1642BOOST: Getting raw data in mmWave ROS driver

Amilton Pensamento

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

I'm using the mmWave ROS driver to collect radar data. I'm able to see the point cloud data in Rviz, but I would like to get the raw data file. Do you know where I can find the raw data file in the mmWave ROS driver?

Hi,

The mmWave ROS driver does not support collecting RAW data.

Usually, in order to collect raw data one would need to use the DCA1000 capture card. For general use case it is not possible to collect raw data only with the BOOST EVM

thank you

Understood. How do I get the data being displayed in Rviz? My assumption is that the data will be in .bag or .pcd file format, but I cannot find it.
