mmWave sensing shape

 I would like to know about the sensors, the mmWave in particular. Can this sensor be used to detect the shape of the object? Maybe some small objects like cup or fruit, not really that large object. Indeed, I want to find a radar can return data of how the object shaped like, which one of your product should I choose? I want a mini-sensor doing this. And will the sensor be capable of using on Arduino?

p.s. will the shape information be returned as point cloud?

    Hello,

    Generally mmWave sensors can be use to obtain point cloud data that gives the general size and speed of an object. However imaging contours or small details of a non moving object’s shape is not currently possible with the single sensor solution.

    Please refer to these example demo videos to see the type of data collection and applications currently possible:
