APDS-9500

APDS-9500 is a imaging-based proximity and gesture sensor. It provides an imaging-based gesture recognition function with an I²C-bus interface. It can recognize nine gestures, including move up, move down, move left, move right, move forward, move backward, circle-clockwise, circle-counter clockwise and wave. This gesture information can be easily accessed via the I²C bus. It also provides built-in proximity detection for sensing objects approaching or departing. It is used in applications such as gesture detection, cell phone touch-screen disable, mechanical switch replacement.
