This is the RGB & Gesture Sensor, a small breakout board with a built in APDS-9960 sensor that offers ambient light & color measuring, proximity detection, & touchless gesture sensing. With this RGB & Gesture Sensor you will be able to control a computer, microcontroller, robot, & more with a simple swipe of your h&. This is, in fact, the same sensor that the Samsung Galaxy S5 uses & 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 & IR blocking filters, four separate diodes sensitive to different directions, & 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) & INT (interrupt). Each APDS-9960 also has a detection range of 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 cm).
