Hi,

I downloaded flowcode 8 software today for evaluation purpose & before buying it I want to make sure it can help me with the projects I have in my mind.
For my current project I need gesture detection. I looked for APDS-9960 under the sensor tab but unfortunately it is not listed there.
Does flowcode 8 supports gesture sensing?

Hi

I think you may mean v9 software.

Whilst that sensor isn't available as a component it does use an I2C interface which is supported (in both v8 and v9) and there are many examples of how to use the device online.

Regards
