The system provides a low power solution with continuous hand motion monitoring, enabling improved hygiene though a touchless interface and reduced water consumption. Thanks to the high accuracy, the sensor reliably detects the presence of hands even when the water is running or if the sensor is covered in dirt or soap. The benefits of using the A121 sensor are low power consumption, high precision, small size, and high robustness.<\/p>\n
