Abstract
Disclosed is a system for allowing users to capacitively interact with objects using gestures in an environment. The system includes a smart sense unit for communicating gesture information and a smart sensing master unit is capacitively coupled to the smart sense unit for identifying the received gesture information and identification information from the smart sense unit to operate the object. The gestures may either be 2D, 3D, multiple 2D or 3D gestures from different users or different body parts. The smart sense unit identifies the change in a provided electric field caused by the user and the object and converts into a digital value. The smart sense unit further identifies the location of the object and the user and further communicates the information to the smart sensing master unit. The smart sensing master unit identifies the gesture and the identification information to interact with the object on receiving the impedance changes forked out from a resonator.
