CCS/IWR1642BOOST: PPL Count demo for Fine Motion Detection (High accuracy)

Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1642

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello TI,

I am using PPLCount demo code for motion detection (SDK2.0, mmWave Industrial tool box 2.5.2 and IWR1642Boost EVM)

my application requirement:-

1.Fine Motion detection, It can be able to detect keyboard typing in 10/10 meter Hall

2. Range of IWR1642 is 10 meter with High accuracy detection 

3.IWR1642 work Horizontally 120 deg  and Vertically 60 deg 

above mention points are possible to modify with pplcount  demo and achieve the mention requirements ....?

I have go through pplcount customization guide and Programming Chirp Parameters in TI Radar Devices

i try to modify as per above mention doc but it not affect that much

1.trackingCfg 1 2 250 20 200 50 120

 2.profileCfg 0 77 175 7 20 0 0 100 1 64 5333 0 0 30

3.SceneryParam -10 10 0.05 10

4.Radial velocity resolution(m/s): 0.04

 

there is any other reference for pplcount configuration modification ..?

 

 

Thanks,

Rahul

  • Hi Rahul,

    Have you checked the Fine Motion detection experiment under the Industrial Radar Tool box? It uses modified configuration + Out of Box demo in order to detect fine motion.
    Comparing this to default Out of box demo will show changes made to achieve fine motion detection.

    You could try similar configuration for velocity resolution on people counting runs.
    Hope that gives you a direction to proceed.

    Thank you

  • Hello Vaibhav,

    out of box demo ...?

    what about horizontal and vertical angle , can we improve detection area of mmWave ....?
    mmW provide high accuracy performance for 10m (people typing on PC in hall).....?

    I Have you checked the Fine Motion detection experiment under the Industrial Radar Tool box sdk v1.01

    i need a proper solution for the PPL count Demo modification for fine detection

    need to detect and track people (need to recognize people unless and until it's present in range of IWR1642)


    Thanks,
    Rahul
  • Hello TI,

    i try to tunne my mmW sensor, I have already go through related documents for reference
    i am using hard coded configuration for PPL Count Demo, try use for motion detection

    how to set Below parameter, need to modify it .....?

    Rahul,

    Those are comments and do not need to be modified they can be deleted if you prefer.
