The Hillstar Development Kit provides an artificial test hand, further called hand brick,

helping to stimulate the human hand operating the GestIC application. The hand brick

has to be used during the design-in process to parametrize and evaluate customer’s

applications. The hand brick’s surface is conductive and connected to GND via cable

in order to reproduce the grounding conditions of the human body.
