Recording and analysis of TI mmWave radar data captured with the DCA1000EVM. Download DARTscope.exe below and run it - nothing has to be installed. The user manual is the Manual tab of the program (docs/MANUAL.md).

What is new in 2.0

  • Measure tab - recording without mmWave Studio with the IWR6843AOPEVM + DCA1000: settings in physical units with their checks, takes started by the operator, a quick report after each take, series of settings ranked for a kind of movement.
  • Cascade radar AWR2243-2X-CAS-EVM (2x AWR2243 + AM2732R; 6 TX, 8 RX - up to 48 virtual channels): presets, every setting checked, antenna calibration, takes decoded like any other.
  • Fastcheck tab and the capture health report: lost packets, clipping, the receivers, glitches, breathing and heart energy - with a verdict.
  • Vital signs in the Vitals, HR and AI views (the heart from several range bins, a moving person's heart rate, comparison with a PPG / pulse reference) and Multi Vitals for several people.
  • Imaging: a 4D point cloud of every frame, objects, tracks and the people among them; Micro-Doppler limb swing speeds.
  • Playback through a recording at its real speed with all views following one frame slider; the Log tab.
  • Windows: sharp at any display scaling, the window fitted to the screen, long recordings analysed several times faster, the status bar shows how long a computation has run and about how long it will still take.

Requirements

  • Recording with the IWR6843AOPEVM: mmWave Studio 2.1.1 installed (the radar's library and firmware come from it - it does not run).
  • Recording with the cascade: TI UniFlash 8.x or Code Composer Studio 20+ installed (its debugger loads the cascade's firmware over JTAG).
  • The first recording makes Windows ask whether DARTscope may use the network: allow it, also for public networks.
  • Video export (MP4) needs ffmpeg on the PATH.
