SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Interpreting radar PointCloud tensors to reveal channel meanings, units, and per-detection validity so users can reason about detections, ranges, velocities, and timing within a scan.

Core Features & Use Cases

Map radar channels such as Coordinates, RCS, RadialVelocityMs, TimeOffsetNs, Flags, and Counts to their real-world meaning for debugging and sensor integration.
Validate detections using Counts bounds and Flags-VALID tests, and reason about when a detection should be considered in analyses.
Use cases include interpretation during sensor fusion, debugging radar outputs, and visualization of radar detections for validation.

Quick Start

Analyze a pre-read radar PointCloud to map channel meanings to real-world interpretation and prepare data for downstream processing.

FAQPage Schema

How do I interpret radar pointcloud channels like RCS and RadialVelocityMs for debugging?▼

Radar pointcloud interpretation maps channels such as RCS, RadialVelocityMs, TimeOffsetNs, and Coordinates to human-understandable concepts. It reveals per-detection meanings, units, and sign conventions for debugging, visualization, or sensor integration.

How do I validate radar detections using Flags and Counts bounds?▼

Validate radar detections by checking Flags-VALID tests and verifying Counts-based bounds. This determines per-detection validity and whether a detection should be included in downstream analyses like sensor fusion or visualization.

What do TimeOffsetNs values represent in a radar pointcloud scan?▼

TimeOffsetNs in a radar pointcloud represents timing within a scan. Interpreting this channel helps reason about detection timing, coordinate formats, and sign conventions for accurate sensor data analysis.

Can I use radar pointcloud interpretation for sensor fusion tasks?▼

Yes, radar pointcloud interpretation supports sensor fusion by mapping channel meanings to real-world concepts and validating detections. It prepares pre-read radar data for downstream processing and integration.

Do I need pre-read radar data to interpret pointcloud tensors?▼

Yes, interpreting radar pointcloud tensors requires pre-read data. The Skill maps Coordinates, RCS, RadialVelocityMs, TimeOffsetNs, Flags, and Counts to meaningful concepts rather than reading raw sensor streams.
