Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TIDEP-0091,
Looking for help finding the best suited radar solution to measure material in a feed bin. We would like to sense up to 35 feet with 2-4 inch or better resolution. The material in the bin will range in consistency from flour to rice. Based on my research so far we should be in a higher frequency such as the 77GHz models to have a narrower beam.
Ultimately, we need the finished product to output a 4-20mA signal relative to the distance from the sensor face to the material in the bin. We plan to add the 4-20mA drive circuit, but will need the sensor to output a digital signal.
Which radar IC is the best suited for this application?
Is there a dev kit we can use for this suggested IC to gather sample readings?
