Abstract

A sensor for motion or gesture sensing may be configured to emit radio frequency signals such as for pulsed range gated sensing. The sensor may include a radio frequency transmitter configured to emit the pulses and a receiver configured to receive reflected ones of the emitted radio frequency signals. The received pulses may be processed by a motion channel and/or a gesture channel. The gesture channel may produce signals for further processing for identification of one or more different motion gestures such as by calculating and evaluating features from any of the amplitude, phase and frequency of the output signals of the gesture channel. The sensing apparatus may optionally serve as a monitor for evaluating user activities, such as by counting activities. The sensor may optionally serve as a user control interface for many different devices by generating control signal(s) based on identification of one or more different motion gestures.
