1. A method for evaluating gestures based on data of a sensor having lateral drift-field photodetector diodes (LDPD), the method comprising:

  • sequentially measuring first, extraneous light in order to obtain two dimensional (2D) data in the form of reflectance data;

    measuring second, laser light in order to obtain three dimensional (3D) data in the form of distance data;

    measuring third, residual light;

    obtaining movement artifacts in the 2D and/or 3D data which were caused by residual charges in a moved object;

    detecting a movement by processing the movement artifacts; and

    evaluating the detected movement with regards to a possible gesture.
