People Counting Through Plastic And Drywall And Wood
Table of Contents
Introduction
The objective of this experiment is to evaluate the ability of TI mmWave Sensor to detect and count people through various materials. The experiment was performed inside a conference room, where multiple people entered and exited the room while the People Counting software was running.
Setup
The following setup was implemented for conference room with the IWR1642BOOST EVM impeded by a different sheet of material. Three materials were tested plastic, drywall, and wood.
Hardware Setup
- This experiment was conducted inside a small conference room, approximately 3m by 3m.
- The IWR1642BOOST was mounted on top of a tripod.
- The tripod was placed in the doorway of the conference room, which is in the corner.
- The EVM was tilted down about 15 degrees to maximize the area of room inside the EVM’s field of view.
- The People Counting Demo was run in five different scenarios:
Control | Test 1 | Test 2 | Test 3 | Test 4 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Obstruction Layer | No Obstruction | Birch Plywood | Plexiglass | Drywall(1 Layer) | Drywall(2 Layers) |
