RTOS/AWR1642BOOST: Obtain point cloud data from the sensor?

Samuel Miller99

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1642

Tool/software: TI-RTOS

So far I have been able to extract raw ADC data from the AWR1642 via the capture demo and track objects with the AWR1642 via the mmWave Demo Visualizer. Is there any way I can obtain the point cloud data from the AWR1642 without generating it myself from the ADC raw data? So far, I have been using MATLAB to generate a point cloud for the objects in front of the sensor, but I want to be able to compare my measurements with the board's estimation of angle, range, and velocity. Is there a way to do this?

    Hi Samuel,

    We also have a beta version of mmWaveDemoVisualizer which allows you to save the point cloud data in CSV format. You can access it from dev.ti.com/gallery as shown below. You can also download the source code for the visualizer from the same link using the download button below it. Please mark the thread as answered if this resolves your question otherwise get back in case you have more questions on this topic.

    Thanks

    Thanks, this helps. Ideally, I will integrate the ADC data capture & point cloud generation into one program so I don't have to worry about re-flashing the device every time I want to check my ADC data point cloud against the point cloud that the demo constructs. I'll dive into the source code and see what I can do though, I appreciate the help!
