The sensor features advanced gesture detection, proximity detection and digital ambient light sensing. Gesture detection can accurately sense "up, down, left and right" and more complex movements.
With NyBoard V1_*, you can choose Arduino Uno.
After uploading the sketch, connect to the NyBoard with wire, as shown in the following picture:
For specific use, the end connected to the sensor can be fixed on the robot's head (included in Bittle's mouth or attached to the top of Nybble's head); of course, you can also use your creativity according to your needs.
This testing sketch implements real-time printing of various directional gestures (up, down, left, and right) made by the user in front of the gesture sensor in the serial monitor.
You can use the within the Petoi Desktop App.
You can use to upload and modify the source code.
The code using this sensor has been integrated into the project. Uncomment the line #define GESTURE in the OpenCat.ino, as shown in the figure below, and then use the Arduino IDE to upload the sketch to the robot main board, which can reproduce the example function of integrating the robot action.
You can use the within the Petoi Desktop App. Please select the correct Product type, Borard version, and Serial port. The mode should be Standard, so press the Upgrade the Firmware button. for example, Bittle, BiBoard_V0_2, COM5 as follows:
After uploading, and use the serial command "XG" to switch to using the gesture sensor mode.
You can use to (OpenCatEsp32.ino). Use the latest OpenCatESP32 code to finish the setup. For example, to modify the code for Bittle as shown below:
After uploading, open the and use the serial command "XG" to switch to using the gesture sensor mode.
If you want to test a gesture sensor's function alone or learn more about its principles. You can upload the demo sketch() using the Arduino IDE.
