Getting Started With 3D Gesture Detection
Simplifying 3D Gesture Interface Development
Featured
First Automative-Qualified 3D Gesture Recognition Controller
The MGC3140 is the industry’s first AEC-Q100-qualified 3D gesture recognition controller, based on our proven GestIC® technology. This single-chip solution enables a new era of Human-Machine Interface (HMI) for the automotive environment, allowing for intuitive, touchless control that enhances user experience and driver safety.
GestIC Library
The GestIC Library is embedded firmware that is stored on the internal Flash memory of the MGC3030, MGC3130 and MGC3140 3D gesture controllers. It contains these items:
- The Colibri Gesture Suite with the digital signal processing algorithms for GestIC features, such as approach detection, position tracking and gesture recognition
- The System Control block providing full control of host interfaces, parameter storage and AFE access
- The Library Loader for updates to the GestIC Library
The GestIC Library incorporates a message-based interface that allows the configuration of the chip and the streaming of the sensor data to the host application.
Configure and Visualize Gestures Using Aurea GUI
The Aurea evaluation software, with its built-in help and support system, simplifies the integration of gesture control into your application. It demonstrates the features of GestIC technology and provides access to the GestIC Library controls and configuration parameters and to visualizations of data generated by our MGC3030, MGC3130 and MGC3140 3D gesture controllers. It offers the following capabilities:
- Visualization of hand position and user gestures
- Visualization of sensor data
- Real-time control of sensor features
- GestIC Library updates
- Analog Front-End (AFE) parameterization
- Colibri signal processing parameterization
- Logging of sensor values and storage in a log file
Other Resources and Links
To further support your development, we offer hardware reference packages that contain the PCB layouts for the development kits, a collection of electrode reference designs and host code for various demonstrators that represent complete systems for embedded or PC-based applications. These resources be downloaded from the development kit and product pages. We also offer video tutorials and other developer resources on our Developer Help website.
Tools and Software
