IR Range Estimator
This web-based utility will help you determine if the object you're detecting with the Si114x proximity and ambient light sensors will be within range, and if the SNR threshold is high enough to trigger a detection event. This tool can determine if you have adequate SNR in less than a minute.

Designing Intuitive Gesture-Based Human Interface Systems
Unlike human-to-human gesturing, human-machine gesturing does not have a foundation of thousands of years of history to serve as a context and this poses a challenge for human interface system designers. How does a system designer minimize the pain of "learning" gestures for the user?
