The Gravity: Offline Edge AI Gesture & Face Detection Sensor is designed for intuitive gesture control and multi-person presence detection. Equipped with an integrated camera and onboard AI processor, the sensor can��recognize 5 predefined hand gestures and detect up to 10 faces or upper-body presences simultaneously within a 3-meter range. By combining computer vision and real-time edge AI computing, it delivers responsive and private interaction without cloud dependency.
Featuring dual communication interfaces (I2C and UART) and wide voltage support (3.3V���5V), this module is fully compatible with��Arduino,��Raspberry Pi,��ESP32��and graphical platforms like MakeCode and��Mind+. It is ideally suited for smart home interfaces, touchless control systems, public interaction devices, and privacy-focused��IoT��solutions.
Edg, and Privacy-Safe
All recognition tasks are handled locally by the onboard AI processor���no data is stored or transmitted to the cloud. This completely offline operation guarantees data privacy, making it ideal for sensitive scenarios such as hospital automation, bathroom controls, children���s systems, or public restrooms. Despite its powerful capabilities, it consumes only 100mA (typical), suitable for power-sensitive or standalone applications.

Recognizes 5 Intuitive Hand Gestures ��� Touchless Control Made Easy
The AI gesture and face detection sensor supports recognition of five intuitive hand gestures���including thumbs up, peace sign, and open palm���within a 0.5 to 3 meter range. Each gesture triggers a distinct RGB indicator, enhancing interaction feedback and simplifying development. Ideal for smart appliances, gesture-activated lights, assistive devices, and public "https://dfimg.dfrobot.com/enshop/image/data/SEN0626/5%20gestures.jpg" alt="Recognizes Five Intuitive Gestures" title="Recognizes Five Intuitive Gestures">

Upper-Body and Face Detection with Real-Time Count
Beyond gesture control, the sensor detects head-and-shoulder patterns and can recognize up to��10 human presences or faces simultaneously, providing position and count output in real time. Perfect for occupancy-based HVAC, lighting automation, and people counting in offices, shops, and smart spaces���all with full offline privacy assurance.
