Hi, we are developing a vital sign monitor device to track heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature in a non invasive method. I want to know if we use 60Ghz radar soc for this, can this help us to detect heart rate and respiratory rate while wearing cloths or blankets.

Thanks in advance

Hello.

The vital signs demo on the radar toolbox may answer this question. This demo is designed for the IWR6843 and IWRL6432, both of which are 60 GHz devices.

Sincerely,

Santosh

Hi Madan Raja,

As per the specification, 60GHz needs to be used for Indoor application. 77GHz is used for automotive application

You case use IWRL6432 for monitoring breath rate and heart rate. It can detect heart rate and breath rate at 1-3m

You can find the demo for Vital signs in the Radar toolbox at radar_toolbox_1_30_01_03\source\ti\examples\Medical\IWRL6432_Vital_Signs

The current demo can measure heart rate upto 110 Beats per minute
