RGB and Gesture Sensor, a small breakout board with a built in APDS-9960 sensor that offers ambient light and color measuring, proximity detection, and touchless gesture sensing. With this RGB and Gesture Sensor you will be able to control a computer, microcontroller, robot, and more with a simple swipe of your hand! This is, in fact, the same sensor that the Samsung Galaxy S5 uses and is probably one of the best gesture sensors on the market for the price.

The APDS-9960 is a serious little piece of hardware with built in UV and IR blocking filters, four separate diodes sensitive to different directions, and an I2C compatible interface. For your convenience we have broken out the following pins: VL (optional power to IR LED), GND (Ground), VCC (power to APDS-9960 sensor), SDA (I2C data), SCL (I2C clock), and INT (interrupt). Each APDS-9960 also has a detection range of 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 cm).

    How do I connect and power the sensor breakout to an Arduino or similar microcontroller?
    The module uses an I2C interface. Connect VCC to the sensor power, GND to ground, SDA to the I2C data line, SCL to the I2C clock line, and INT to the interrupt pin. The VL pin is optional and powers the IR LED if you need it.
    What sensing features does this module provide?
    It includes ambient light and RGB color sensing, proximity detection, and gesture sensing. It also has UV and IR blocking filters and a programmable gain and integration time.
    What is the gesture or proximity detection range?
    Proximity detection ranges from 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 cm).
    Is the sensor breakout compatible with platforms other than Arduino?
    Yes, it uses a standard I2C interface with SDA and SCL pins, so it can be used with any I2C capable microcontroller or development board.
    What resources are available to help me get started?
    Resources include the datasheet, libraries, sample code, and tutorials.
