MMM-Flick-Gestures

This module enables you to use the Flick Tracking and Gesture board with your Magic Mirror.
See: https://www.seeedstudio.com/Flick-Large-Standalone-3D-Tracking-and-Gesture-Breakout-p-2952.html

This module will emit 2 events - PAGE_DECREMENT when swiped left and PAGE_INCREMENT when swiped right.

Tested with

• Flick Large – Standalone 3D Tracking and Gesture Breakout
• MMM-Pages - Excellent module for interfacing with a multi-page Magic Mirror.

Not tested with - but should work

• Flick Zero
• Flick HAT
• Any board using MGC3130 3D Tracking and Gesture Controller

If your path is different, you'll have to update myPythonScriptPath in node_helper.js to reflect your MagicMirror path.
(If anyone has any idea how to make this more user-friendly, do make a pull request!)
