About this product
A proximity and ambient light sensor module built around the APDS-9930, which combines an IR LED, a proximity detector and an ambient light sensor in one 8-pin package. The listing states proximity detection up to about 100 mm without factory calibration, operating from bright sunlight to dark rooms. It suits Arduino projects that need object detection or light-level sensing.

Frequently asked questions
How do I wire it to an Arduino?
Connect VCC and GND for power, and SDA and SCL for I2C communication to the Arduino's matching pins. Check the supply voltage marked on your module before connecting.
Does it detect hand gestures?
The APDS-9930 is a proximity and ambient light sensor and does not include a gesture engine. For gesture detection, a gesture-capable sensor such as the APDS-9960 is typically used.
