Gestures
One of the most advanced features of the Diamond Controller is the ability to learn and
recognize gestures. A gesture is a sequence of moves of any complexity that lasts up to 5
seconds. It is learned by the Diamond Controller from a single execution and can be detected
any time while the saber is in active mode. Each time a gesture is recognized you’ll be rewarded
with a special effect. They can be used for practice, saber artistry, and if you’re really skilled,
even in combat!
Each font can hold up to 5 gestures. You can have the same gestures on all fonts or you can
have different ones on each font, so your saber can recognize up to 80 distinct gestures.
The Diamond Controller comes from factory with the same 5 gestures programmed on all fonts.
You can see the default gestures in the video below.

Gestures can be learned directly from the on-board menu – see
Gestures can be saved in files, loaded to another font or even to another saber and have their
sensitivity adjusted through the Ultrasabers Launcher software – see
