Abstract

Systems and methods may provide for using one or more radar measurements to detect a gesture of a body part relative to a mobile device and comparing the gesture to one or more known gestures. Additionally, if the gesture corresponds to at least one of the one or more known gestures, an application running on the mobile device may be notified of the gesture. In one example, the one or more radar measurements are obtained from a plurality of ultra-wideband (UWB) radar modules.
