IWR1843BOOST: Point Cloud / Object plotting in Traffic Monitoring

Part Number: IWR1843BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843

Hi,

We would like to use IWR1843BOOST for 3D Traffic Monitoring. We are developing our own GUI but we would like to use the default firmware bin file from TI.

We noticed that the sensor heigh, azimuth and elevation is not entered via CFG file (unlike the case for IWR6843 3D People Count) and instead entered in the TI GUI. In our understanding, the TI GUI for Traffic Monitoring is transforming the point cloud / objects receieved from the device using the gui-entered sensor height, azimuth, and elevation before finally plotting them.

Is this the case? Then we also need to do this transformation in our GUI, correct? Is there a way to do the transformation of the points and objects on the device level like in the case of IWR6843 3D people counting instead of doing it at GUI level? Is this an action item or do we expect this to be available in next revisions?

    Hello,

    It is correct that the transformation is occurring in the GUI. There is no plan for us to implement the transformation on the device. However the source code is provided and you should be able to make the modification and recompile the code following the examples provided in the GUI and 3d people counting demo.
