IWR1642: Detect the water inside the wall / fruit.

JANICE LEE

Part Number: IWR1642

Hi Sir,

We are planning to develop the mmWave Radar on water detection, but the water is inside the wall or fruit.
(not similar as your demo water/ground or the application about level detection.)

Is that possible we have mmWave Radar to detect
the " humidity " in the wall, or the water content inside a fruit (apple)?

Thanks and Best Regards,
Janice

Hi Janice,

I've asked an expert to look into this and we should have an answer for you later this week.

Cheers,

Akash

Hi, Janice:

We have seen that water has a strong reflection on radar signals. But we have never tried to detect the water behind the wall or inside the fruits. It will be something new for you to try.

Best,

Zigang
