Microchip’s MGC3130 is the world’s first electrical near field (E-field) 3D Tracking and Gesture Controller. Based on Microchip’s patented GestIC® technology, it allows users to interact with their devices using hand/finger position tracking and intuitive free-space gestures in real time. The MGC3130 is a unique solution that enables the next breakthrough in user interface design.
GestIC® Technology Benefits:
- Very low power design
- From 0 (touch) to 15 cm detection range
- No detection blind spots
- Usage of thin, low-cost sensing electrodes
- Electrodes hidden behind housing
- No ambient influences (light/sound)
- High sensitivity
- 70-130 kHz carrier frequency – no RF interference
