CCS/IWR1443BOOST: About point cloud and GTrack

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi there

I have some questions about https://e2e.ti.com/support/tools/ccs/f/81/p/821311/3039118#3039118

1. what is the point cloud?

2. How do I get the GTrack software? maybe, 14xx - mmWave SDK Demo project is GTrack??

I am a begginer not familiar with iwr 1443.

Please, Answer my questions, and help me.

  • Hi Dong-seong,

    1. Point cloud is the detected objects returned by the radar processing chain.  Point cloud is generally used by higher level algorithms, such as the tracker.
    2. The IWR1443 uses the Cortex R4F for processing. You will need to use a gtrack library that is compiled for Cortex R4F.  Then you will need to modify the existing software to run GTrack.  See lab0015, mss/task_app.c as an example of gtrack use.
