QE for Capacitive Touch: Development Assistance Tool for Capacitive Touch Sensors

The “3D gesture recognition” feature of QE for Capacitive Touch supports the development of gesture applications with the use of AI. Though the development of AI applications involves many processes and a high level of difficulty, three features of the QE tool support development, allowing anyone to develop AI applications without the need for specialized AI skills.

3 features that enable "3D gesture recognition"

1. Recording

Gesture data can be registered just by actually performing the gesture that you want the AI to recognize on the capacitive sensor.
The registered data are displayed in a list supporting the deletion of data from failed gestures and an importing feature.

2. AI generation

During the processes of creating the AI (data pre-processing, deep learning, and conversion to C source code), the QE tool automatically proceeds with optimum processing for gestures. Although automating AI creation is usually difficult, this can be achieved by focusing the target on the gesture.

3. Monitoring & Tuning

You can monitor and tune the precision of the created AI on the actual machine. If a gesture has not been correctly recognized, you can immediately add the waveform to the training data by clicking on the [Add Data] button on the monitoring screen to give feedback to the AI.
This eases proceeding with iterations to improve the AI engine.
