AWR6843AOPEVM: Hardware setup To run vital signs demo

Part Number: AWR6843AOPEVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVEICBOOST,

Hi,

I need to run the vital signs demo on awr6843aopevm.  Does the evm's orientation matter?I saw the evm placed horizontally in the demo video with the mission aop in the right. I want to know if i can place the evm vertically with mission aop o top. Is it also required to keep MMWAVEICBOOST connected to the evm in order to run the vital signs demo? Can vital signs be run in stand-alone mode?

    Hello, 

    Please confirm, are you referring to Vital Signs with People Tracking demo from the Radar Toolbox?

    This demo does not require the MMWAVEICBOOST board to run, it can be run in standalone mode on the AOP EVM.

    The EVMs orientation does matter but your proposed orientation should work. The main requirement for vitals to work is that the EVM is facing perpendicular to the subject's chest. One thing to note is that the location of the target in the 3D plot will not be accurate. There is a sensorPosition command in the configuration file (.cfg) which is used to describe the sensor's orientation but this command currently only supports rotation around the Z and X axes but not rotation about the Y axis which it seems you want to do.

    Best Regards,

         What about the Vital signs demo in the automotive_toolbox_3_6?

    Hello, 

    I will need to verify this with the appropriate owner for that demo. Please allow me to check on this and get back to you with more information tomorrow.

    Best Regards,

    Hi Josh,

    The EVM must be positioned vertically, with the mission aop board up and the bearkaway board down, to meet my specified requirements.

    It is stated that the EVM should be perpendicular to the subject's chest for the vital signs to work and my proposed orientation should work. 

    Additionally, It is stated that sensorPosition command in the .cfg file does not support Y-axis rotation.

    Could you please provide more clarification on this?

    I'm attached an evm image that demonstrates the orientation I need for the evm.

     

    When i place the evm like this, will the demo works?

    Hello, 

    I apologize for the delayed response here. Yes this should work.

    The sensorPosition command is relevant for the Vitals with People Tracking Demo. It does not affect the vital sign processing, It is provided so that the detected points are represented correctly based on the position of the sensor. This command only allows for specifying the mounting height, and rotating/tilting along the X and Z axis. That command would not support the rotation you propose but all that is going to be affected is the location of the detected points in the visualizer. The vital sign processing would not be affected. 

    Best Regards,

    Josh
