The Pi projects the wand tip's 3D motion onto a 2D plane to create the training image. Different planes capture your gestures differently β pick whichever produces the cleanest, most distinctive shapes. Perform a gesture in the Recorder first, then come back here to compare the three projections.

Smart Home Integration
The Wand ID is derived from your device's hardware serial. The name appears in Alexa as "Living Room Wand: Circle" β change it before syncing with Alexa.
Pair this wand with the Magic Wand cloud once, and every recognised gesture fires an event your Alexa Routines can subscribe to (e.g. "When Wand: Circle is pressed β turn on the lights"). The cloud bridges to Alexa so any device Alexa can control becomes available, with no extra setup per gesture.
