Product Showcase: Walabot
The Walabot Starter and Developer are programmable sensor tools that look into objects using radio frequency technology that breaks through known barriers, bringing highly sophisticated sensing capabilities to your fingertips. Walabot uses antenna arrays to illuminate the area in front of it and sense the returning signals. The signals are produced and recorded by a VYYR2401 A3 System-on-Chip integrated circuit. They are then communicated to a host device (like your phone or computer) using a USB interface, which is implemented using a Cypress controller.
Through broadband recordings from multiple transmit/receive antenna pairs, Walabot is able to analyze and reconstruct a three-dimensional image of the environment. Analysis of sequences of images allows detecting changes in the environment.
