APDS9960 Light and gesture sensor

The APDS9960 is an ambient light and gesture sensor.

// Call at boot time
var i2c = new I2C();
i2c.setup({sda:D27,scl:D28}); // use the I2C pins you're using here
var sensor = require("APDS9960").connect(i2c);

// Check for new gestures
setInterval(function() {
  var g = sensor.getGesture();
  if (g) console.log(g);
}, 1000);
