Grove Smart IR Gesture Sensor is an intelligent gesture recognition module equipped with an infrared camera sensor and applied AI algorithm. It can detect over 15 gestures with wide detection while supporting both IIC and SPI communication. This module also allows Grove, Type-C, and Seeed Studio XIAO direct connecting.

Grove Smart IR Gesture Sensor is an intelligent gesture recognition module equipped with a PAG7646J1 infrared camera module, a PAG7661QN (ISP), and an LED fill light. It recognizes and interprets hand gestures through image recognition of the picture taken by the infrared camera, enabling clear gesture recognition even in dark environments.

The sensor supports various multi-finger gestures such as N-finger push, pinch, tap, grab, rotation, thumb up, thumb down, static gesture (1 to 5 fingers), and swipe. It can detect over 15 different types of hand gestures, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. With a detection range of 5-40cm, it provides accurate and reliable gesture recognition.

The High Compatibility of the sensor makes it easy to integrate into your projects. It is compatible with the XIAO series interface and supports the Arduino ecosystem by the Grove connector through the I2C connector. Gesture result data can be obtained by connecting to an MCU via the SPI pinhole, or Images can be displayed on a PC host through the Type-C interface. This flexibility makes it easy to use with a variety of systems and platforms.

Note:

• On the back left side is an SPI/IIC switch used by the user to toggle between SPI and IIC usage.
  

Hardware Overview:

Note:

• Placing the gesture in this direction above the camera will make the final result more accurate. For the sensor, if you see the figure standing upright, then you have placed it in the correct position.
