IWR6843AOPEVM: Converting Visualiser GUI into non GUI

Part Number: IWR6843AOPEVM

Hi 

So i manage to convert the visualizer python code from GUI into non gui version for people counting. I'm having a little problem though. It seems the performance is really bad without the GUI. The numberof detected targets is really off and delayed. For example, I'd stand in front of the sensor and with the GUI in less than 100 milliseconds it would detect me and follow me. If I stepped out of the boundry box the number detected would go to 0. 

Whereas in the non GUI version, when I stand in front of it, I have to wave my arms around for it to detect me and then when I step out of the boundary box it would stay at 1 detected and then go to 0 after almost half a minute. Why is this?

Kind Regards

  • Hello

    The people counting demo does the post processing on the device and sends data over uart.

    As long as you are passing the same configuration to the device  the data coming out of the device should be the same in w/ vs w/o gui.

    Please see what configuration is being sent to device in two cases and show the comparison of device output data.

    THank you,

  • Hello Vaibhav,

    The configuration is exactly the same!

    Although the GUI i have to run on my computer and the non gui im running on a pi. Do you think the problem is the computing power?

    Thanks

    Kind Regards

  • Hi Sagar,

     

    Thank you for using the E2E forums. Since the configurations are identical and the only major difference between the GUI and the non-GUI version is the device it is being run on, I suspect that may be the issue. Please try running the non-GUI setup on the computer and let me know if that has the same expected performance or not.
