IWR6843: Target detection and tracking in Out-of-box and Area Scanner demos

Tosin Babarinde
Intellectual 435 points
Part Number: IWR6843

Hello,

Kindly point me to articles/application notes from TI that discuss object detection in the out-of-box (OOB) demo, and one other that introduces tracking and static detection in the area scanner demo. I am interested in how the theories are developed and how the values in the respective parameters in the configuration files came to be.

I could see similar documents in the people counting demo(s) but look to me that the approach in implementing people counting is significantly different from that used in the area scanning (which is OOB plus tracking and static detection)

Thanks,

Tosin

    Hi Tosin,

    For the out-of-box detection - See the SDK documentation in C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\packages\ti\datapath\dpc\objectdetection

    For Area Scanner tracking - as far as I understand, it uses the same tracking algorithm as people counting.

    For Area Scanner static detection - see the link in the Industrial Toolbox here

    Thanks Nathan for the comments.

    My study is to try to understand the object detection in both the OOB and area scanning which seems to me to have similar parameters in the configuration file. 

    The C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\packages\ti\datapath\dpc\objectdetection does not give these full details. I was looking to get information on what configuration commands do what and in what DPU. This was done in the object detection for people counting as given in this document ("mmwave_industrial_toolbox_4_10_0\labs\People_Counting\docs\3D_people_counting_detection_layer_tuning_guide.pdf")

    I want to know for each DPU- Range, Doppler, CFAR, AoA, what are the commands and parameters and what controls what.

    Would you come across something new, please share. I will keep studying what is available to me in the mean time too.

    Hi Tosin,

    Have you looked at the SDK User's Guide? This has very many of the parameters I think you're looking for. See C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_03_05_00_04\docs\mmwave_sdk_user_guide.pdf

    Best,
