Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MMWAVE-SDK
I'm using an IWR6843AOPEVM (Rev C/ES 1.0) with the area_scanner lab from Industrial Toolbox v4.0.1.
My goal is to capture a static object in a static scene. With the cfarCfg change in the other thread, I was able to keep it running for a "long time".
To capture a static image, I turned off clutterRemoval ("clutterRemoval -1 0"). When I load this config the GUI crashes within a few seconds with "Error: -<number> 0". <number> varies in each run. My guess is it got a short/empty packet but I don't really know.
At the moment, I would just like to capture a single screenshot showing a blob indicating a static object in a static scene, to show the mmWave can do that. (If, er When, we get funding I can refine the technique.)
Is there some adjustment I can make to allow the GUI to keep running? Thanks for any suggestions.
