IWR6843AOPEVM: Can display both heart rate and the Range-Azimuth Heatmap simultaneously?

Part Number: IWR6843AOPEVM


Tool/software:

Dear seniors,

I am a beginner in millimeter-wave radar, so there are many things I don’t understand. My experiment requires a tool that can display both heart rate and a Range-Azimuth Heatmap. Does anyone know of a suitable tool for this?

I am aware that the Vital_Signs_With_People_Tracking tool can display heart rate, while the mmWave Demo Visualizer can show the Range-Azimuth Heatmap. However, the .bin (binaries) required for these two tools are not interchangeable.

Is there any way to display both heart rate and the Range-Azimuth Heatmap simultaneously?

  • Hi

    The graph displayed in the visualizer is only an internal value, it is not the graph of heart rate. Only heart rate value is displayed in the visualizer. 

    It is not possible to display heatmap as it would need significant amount of data to be sent out of the device. As the Vital signs application is tightly coupled to the frame rate, there is not enough time to send out the heat map

    Regards
