  Online visualization of multiple sensor output of an automotive radar sensor: The main goal of the project was to develop a software in visual basic that reads out the data of a CONTINANTAL ARS 308 radar sensor provided by electronic control unit (ECU). The Data is coded in CAN format and transferred to the computer by VECTOR USB-CAN case. Next the data transferred into the computer and visualized online. A graphical user interface (GUI) allows the user to set different sittings.
