Test Results

Table 3-1 summarizes the test results.

Wood Post
Small Bicycle
Concrete Block (8”x8”x16”)
Cone

Please note that the results provided in this table assume different ranges. For example detection of some of these objects may not be achieved at all the angles at a range of 2m. In Figure 3-1, the wood post is detected at 2m at an approximate maximum angle of 65 degrees.

Following are snapshots of the testing setup with associated GUI measurements.

The reflected points are clustered. A cluster is rendered as a cube. The size of the cube is computed based on the size of the cluster. Red is used to render objects within 1 m. Green is used to render objects at a distance larger than 1 m. In the GUI, the bright red square shows the location of the sensor.
