Grove - Gesture Sensor for Arduino (PAJ7620U2)

Grove - Gesture is based on PAJ7620U2 that integrates gesture recognition function with general I2C interface into a single chip. It can recognize 9 gestures including moving up, moving down, moving left, moving right, etc with a simple swipe by your hand.

Following is a video which using Gesture sensor with a matrix to display the direction of the hand.

We can use the gesture to adjust the sound volume, control a robot. We can also make a remote-control unit, which is able to operate many devices at the same time using gestures

What is Grove?

Grove makes it easier to connect, experiment, and simplify the prototyping process. No jumpers or soldering required. We have developed more than 300 Grove modules, covering a wide range of applications that can fulfill a variety of needs. Not only are these open hardware, but we also have open-source software. 

We've done all the hard work with example code and software libraries to help you to started with this sensor in just a few lines of code. Check our Wiki to learn more!
