AWR1642BOOST: Saving and retrieving data from point cloud using Demo Visualizer

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Hello,

When using Demo Visualizer, one can choose to record the measurements from the sensor, in a file with extension .dat, and this same file can be parsed later on. My question is how can I retrieve information from the point cloud, using that file. Concretely, I want to retrieve the range, azimuth, doppler and snr of every point in the point cloud.

Thanks in advance,

José Castanheira

  • Hi Jose,

    The .dat file represents the data stream that is output from the device. You will need to decode it as per the doxygen instructions.

    Alternatively, you can use the area scanner lab as the record function in this lab will output a .csv spreadsheet which contains all of the information you are looking for above.


    Cheers,
