IWR6843AOP: Fall detection reference source code

pikopro developer

Part Number: IWR6843AOP

Tool/software:

Hi, I'm working on a fall detection application using the IWR6843AOP module. Could you please suggest the most suitable source code to use as a starting point for this project?

Currently, I’m using the source located at:
C:\ti\radar_toolbox_3_00_00_05\source\ti\examples\Industrial_and_Personal_Electronics\People_Tracking\3D_People_Tracking
Is this a recommended base for developing fall detection?

Thanks.

    Hello, 

    The people tracking software that you are using is already the recommended starting point for developing a fall detection application with 6843AOP. The fall detection shown here uses the target height TLV data output (described at the bottom of this page) to make a determination of if a fall has occurred. Currently, this fall detection algorithm is running from within the python visualizer (mmWave Industrial Visualizer of the radar toolbox) but there shouldn't be any reason that one would not be able to implement the same processing of the height data on the device. So the python visualizer code would be the only reference fall detection code we have right now. The relevant functions can be found at {RADAR_TOOLBOX_INSTALL}\tools\visualizers\Applications_Visualizer\common\Demo_Classes\Helper_Classes\fall_detection.py. 

    Best regards,

    Josh
