Gesture recognition-based automation

Now we have interfaced the connections as per the following diagram:

Let's go ahead and upload the following code:

import signal
import flicklib
import time
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
GIPO.setmode(GPIO.BCM)
GPIO.setup(light, GPIO.OUT)
GPIO.setup(fan,GPIO.OUT)
pwm = GPIO.PWM(fan,100)
def message(value):
print value
@flicklib.move()
def move(x, y, z):
global xyztxt
xyztxt = '{:5.3f} {:5.3f} {:5.3f}'.format(x,y,z)
@flicklib.flick()
def flick(start,finish):
global flicktxt
