How to run the code

Download the Gesture.zip file. Extract it into Documents-> Arduino-> libraries folder.

Now open Arduino IDE. Go to Files-> Examples-> Gesture and open Gesture_example code in IDE.

Now connect MYOSA motherboard to your computer. Go to Tools-> Board-> and choose Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560

Go to Tools-> port and choose COM on which board is connected.

Now upload your code to MYOSA motherboard by clicking upload button from toolbar.

open the Serial Monitor from Tools-> Serial Monitor

Now you can see the Gesture values on Serial Monitor.
