3D Gesture Sensor (Mini) For Arduino

The DFRobot 3D Gesture Sensor (Mini) integrates 3D gesture recognition and motion tracking using Microchip's patented GestIC near-field sensing technology. It can detect clockwise and counterclockwise rotation, directional swipes, and proximity — all without physical contact.

With an effective detection range of up to 10 cm and I2C communication, this sensor is straightforward to integrate into Arduino projects for touchless control interfaces.
