IWR1642BOOST: How can differentiate larger objects

Part Number: IWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1642

hi,

I have IWR1642 boost device, I need to detect larger objects. My goal is to detect elephants within 100 m range. I know there is no demo lab for that. But need to do that. Is the IWR1642 BOOST device gives the size of the object? 

  • Hi Pranav,

    I would recommend starting with the traffic monitoring demo. This is built to track cars, which probably have similar RCS to elephants, and is available on IWR1642. Please check the max range of the chirp configuration - if it is not long enough, you can simply modify the slope (see SDK user's guide for details on the profileCfg command to do this) to increase the range - see this document for details on modifying for range.

    Regards,

    Justin
