      - Sensor Library Overview
        The Sensor library provides applications with a consistent interface to simultaneously access up to 64 sensors connected to the hardware platform.
      - Opening and closing a connection to a sensor unit
        Applications use a handle provided through the Sensor API to access each of the logical sensor units that are configured in the sensor configuration file.
      - Starting and stopping a sensor unit
      - Opening and closing a connection to an interim data unit
        Applications use a handle provided through the Sensor API to access each of the interim data units that are configured in the interim data configuration file.
      - Starting an interim data unit
      - Accessing sensor data and status
        Applications can access the sensor's data and status by binding callback functions or events that are of the structure sigevent to sensor events that are of particular interest.
      - Publishing interim data
        Publishers are applications that generate interim data information for other applications.
      - Subscribing to interim data
        Subscribers are applications that use interim data that publishers generate.
      - Recording data from a sensor
        Applications can record the data that's streaming from a sensor to a file.
      - Querying sensor information
      - Using external clocks
        Sensor timestamps can be based on a reference time provided by an external clock library.
      - Using external sensor drivers
        Sensors that aren't already supported by the Sensor Framework for QNX SDP can be provided by an external sensor driver library.

sensor_radar_track_flags_t

Flags providing information about the tracked object

Synopsis:

#include <sensor/sensor_radar.h>

typedef enum {
    RADAR_FLAG_NEW_TRACK = 0x0001,
    RADAR_FLAG_MERGED_TRACK = 0x0002,
    RADAR_FLAG_COASTED_TRACK = 0x0004,
    RADAR_FLAG_MEDIUM_RANGE = 0x0008,
    RADAR_FLAG_LONG_RANGE = 0x0010,
    RADAR_FLAG_BRIDGE = 0x0020,
    RADAR_FLAG_ONCOMING = 0x0040,
    RADAR_FLAG_GROUPING_CHANGE = 0x0080,
    RADAR_FLAG_DETECT_STATUS = 0x1000
} sensor_radar_track_flags_t;

Data:

RADAR_FLAG_NEW_TRACK: A new tracked object.; The bit is set when the tracked object is a new object; otherwise the bit isn't set to indicate that it's an existing object.
RADAR_FLAG_MERGED_TRACK: A merged tracked object.; The bit is set to indicate that the tracked object has been merged with another tracked object; otherwise the bit isn't set. A merged tracked object is the result of merging existing tracked objects.
RADAR_FLAG_COASTED_TRACK: A coasted track.; The bit is set to indicate a coasted track; otherwise the bit isn't set. A coasted track is a tracked object not detected currently, but preserved from previous tracks.
RADAR_FLAG_MEDIUM_RANGE: Medium-ranged tracked object.; The bit is set to indicate that the information for the tracked object was detected by medium-range radar.
RADAR_FLAG_LONG_RANGE: Long-ranged tracked object.; The bit is set to indicate that the tracked object was detected by long-range radar; otherwise the bit isn't set.
RADAR_FLAG_BRIDGE: Tracked bridge object.; The bit is set when the tracked object is recognized as a bridge; otherwise the bit isn't set.
RADAR_FLAG_ONCOMING: Tracked oncoming object.; The bit is set when the tracked object is recognized as an oncoming object that's approaching the sensor; otherwise the bit isn't set.
RADAR_FLAG_GROUPING_CHANGE: Track grouping change.; The bit is set when the number of detections associated with the track has changed; otherwise the bit isn't set.
RADAR_FLAG_DETECT_STATUS: Detection status.; The bit is set when the detection has valid measurement data; otherwise the bit isn't set.

Library:

libsensor

Description:

These flags are set in the sensor_radar_track_polar_t flags bitfield to provide information about the tracked object.
