OOTSIDEBOX / Elektor.Labs 3D pad: Touchless Gesture Control interface, guaranteed "Wow!" value

You can easily produce a Touchless Gesture Control interface that's capable of reliably providing 3-dimensional co-ordinates (X, Y, and Z axes). 

This simple, experimental device, designed in collaboration with the Elektor Labs team, consists of a sandwich made up of a PCB called an electrode plane, an Arduino Uno, and a shield, with control software.
