Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to devices and methods for detecting dimming gestures using infrared detection. Infrared signals are detected using a thermal metal-oxide-semiconductor (TMOS) infrared (IR) sensor solution. The TMOS IR sensor is highly accurate and has low power consumptions compared to traditional IR sensors that utilize IR receivers.
