CCS/IWR6843: Merging People counting and Vital Sing lab with IWR6843

Part Number: IWR6843

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello

I am interested in People Counting and Vital Sign demo projects with IWR6843.

I checked both of *.cfg files. Each chirp and signal processing looks very different.

And each project uses almost all antennas.

I think those default settings are optimized for each project.

So, I doubt the possibility of my idea to merge two functions on a single IWR6843 board.

First, I wonder could I merge both of project in a single IWR6843 board?

Second, If it can merge, How far does it affect the performance? Is it critical?

  • Hi Sumin,

    The People Counting demo gives peoples locations, the vital signs tries to determine breathing rate and heartbeat for a person in a specific location - you would need to basically feed tracking data to the vital signs software to make this work. However, we don't have any guide on doing this, and haven't tried. I don't expect this would effect performance.

    Regards,
