Infineon CapSense Proximity Shield

CY8CKIT-024 CapSense Proximity Shield, Cypress Semiconductor

The CY8CKIT-024 CapSense Proximity Shield is an Arduino-compatible evaluation platform for CapSense-based proximity sensing solutions. The shield is designed to work with the Cypress PSoC Pioneer kits (CY8CKIT-040 and CY8CKIT-042).
The CY8CKIT-024 CapSense Proximity Shield enables you to evaluate the proximity sensing features including Liquid Tolerance, Wake-On-Approach and Gesture Detection. The kit is using 5 proximity loops.
With the CY8CKIT-024 Shield, Cypress is providing users with three-dimensional gesture recognition capabilities for capacitive proximity sensing detection.

• Proximity-sensing distance of approximately up to 100 mm when interfaced with the CY8CKIT-040 or CY8CKIT-042 kits
• Horizontal and vertical gesture detection at a distance of 20 mm
• Liquid-tolerant proximity sensing
