Future EVM Capabilities

Cody Cutright

I understand the TDC100-TDC7200 is an EVM, but are there any plans to include more capabilities in the future? 

Forgive my ignorance if I mention something that already exists and I missed it in the documentation.

A short list of things that might be interesting is below:

  1. Multi-path capability.
    1. I understand that for TOF applications a longer path may be less desirable in some applications depending on signal attenuation. However I've seen applications where the signal path is modeled on a 'W' pattern - or a 'V' or some combination thereof. I imagine that the current capabilities would support this if some of the details were ignored by the GUI?

Doppler Shift measurement
  1. Since TOF is hindered by large amount of solids or entrained air bubbles, could the capability be expanded in the future to measure doppler shift? The obvious "change" is from measuring time to frequency - but the Doppler Shift actually relies on air bubbles / suspended particles to modify the generated frequency. If possible, the obvious benefit is that now the EVM can be used for a wider range of applications.

  • Angle Selection
    1. The ability to specify the angle of the transducers if they are not 45 degrees.

Thanks for any discussion,
