Dummy Radar Sample using C++
The sample metavision_dummy_radar.cpp
shows an example of processing pipeline featuring some algorithm (here the
ActivityMonitor
computing event rates per bin and RadarViewer
for displayed image production) and some display
feature (using our SDK UI module) altogether with a slicing operation.
The source code of this sample can be found in <install-prefix>/share/metavision/sdk/core/cpp_samples/metavision_dummy_radar
when installing Metavision SDK from installer or packages. For other deployment methods, check the page
Path of Samples.
Expected Output
The sample visualizes a fan-shape radar with the object generating most events highlighted as a white strip:

How to start
First, compile the sample as described in this tutorial.
To start the sample based on the live stream from your camera, run:
Linux
./metavision_dummy_radar
Windows
metavision_dummy_radar.exe
To start the sample based on recorded data, provide the full path to a RAW or an HDF5 event file:
Linux
./metavision_dummy_radar -i <YOUR_RECORDING>
Windows
metavision_dummy_radar.exe -i <YOUR_RECORDING>
To check for additional options:
Linux
./metavision_dummy_radar -h
Windows
metavision_dummy_radar.exe -h
