System overview
The RT-Backpack is a collection of small and lightweight components that transform any RT sensor
into a wearable RT-Range target object. This makes it ideal for testing and validating advanced driver
assistance systems (ADAS), especially where there is a need to track pedestrians, cyclists or
motorcyclists.
While the RT-Backpack is packaged differently, the principal of operation is the same as an
RT-Range target. RT-Range hunters do not differentiate between data received from target
RT-Ranges or RT-Backpacks and treat both as mobile targets. For that reason, only information
unique to the RT-Backpack is covered in this manual. All other relevant information can be found in
the RT-Range manual.
