Hello,
I recently noticed that the point cloud received from an IWR6843AOP with industrial tool box v11 and v12, had data from the physical vertical axis not in the right way. Similar issue as been discussed here, but the solution does not work for me : https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors-group/sensors/f/sensors-forum/1022381/iwr6843isk-ods-misreported-xyz-data-on-mmwave-demo-visualizer---data-rotated-and-split-along-center/3797861?tisearch=e2e-sitesearch&keymatch=antenna%2525252520rotation#3797861
It looks like that. If someone is in the nth place (in black). It will appear in the point cloud in the nth place (in blue).
To easily reproduce this, you can rotate the radar by 90 degrees clockwise. So the vertical axis will be horizontal, it will be then easier to test it (you can just walk in front of the radar).
Then you can either, see it by applying on the default parameters a correction for the antennas rotation (1). (That's why I specify the physical axis, even after software correction, the problem comes from the same axis)
Or you can enable the azimuth-elevation angle method (rangeAngleEstMethod = 2) to generate the point cloud (2).
Then you will see something like that in the point cloud.
Is the problem known? Has it been fixed in a more recent version of the lab?
Or is there a known fix in the config file as mentioned in the related post ?
