How does the IWR1642BOOST DEMO board output an array of data using the serial port, and then display it in the serial debugging assistant? Is there a related routine? Thank you

Hi ZHG,

The mmWave-SDK demo outputs the post-processed object data over UART. It is then decoded by the visualizer and the object data is displayed on-screen.

I'd recommend looking at either the source code for the SDK Demo or the javascript for the visualizer.

Cheers,

Thank you very much for your answer, I know the method you said. However, because of the work requirements, I can only output the data to the serial debugging assistant through the UART and then analyze it. The ultimate goal is to output and save the data through the UART, but I am not very clear about the communication mechanism of this UART. Can you provide a DEMO for a UART? I can easily call and receive or send the data I need through this DEMO. Thank you for your help

Hi ZHG,

All of the labs on the resource explorer utilize the UART Driver.

You can also examine the UART driver directly in the SDK folder at the following location, C:\ti\mmwave_sdk_02_01_00_04\packages\ti\drivers\uart
