Note that we connect the DR pin, but we will only use it in the Arduino:
Gesture Example. DR stands for "Data Ready," which is active high
whenever data is ready to be read from the ZX Sensor. We can attach this
to an Arduino interrupt so we don't have to continuously poll the sensor.
Arduino Library Installation
All of the hard work for the ZX Sensor is being accomplished in the
microcontroller on the sensor itself. All we need to do is read the results!
We have created an Arduino library to make that even easier for you. Click
the button to download the latest version of the ZX Sensor Arduino Library.
You can also find the latest files in the GitHub repository.
