2.4.1.2 Range Offset Calibration
Unlike the Range Offset parameter, which affects the binned range value, the following pixel offset from table shown in
Figure 37 intends to do the same for each single pixel range by performing a calibration on a reference plane. The distance
in meters to the reference plane can be entered in
Calibration Target Distance [m]
field. After clicking the
Run Range
Offset Calibration Sequence button
, the table is filled with the values and distance offsets that are written to the sensor.
The generated calibration data can also be imported and exported for further processing or analysis. Single offset values
can also be modified and requested by using the
Get
and
Set
buttons.
The main purpose of this calibration procedure is to enable and improve gesture detection applications by minimizing the
range offset among the single pixels of the 32-pixel array on the receiving side. The effect of this calibration is depicted in
Figure 38 .
