A non-contact gesture control module based on the principle of infrared reflection, contains a sensing area composed of a plurality of infrared transmitting tubes and a plurality of infrared receiving tubes, the infrared transmitting tubes and the infrared receiving tubes being alternately arranged in an extending direction. A control circuit controls the switching on and off of the individual infrared transmitting tubes and the individual infrared receiving tubes. A signal processor is provided for receiving and processing signals generated by the plurality of infrared receiving tubes and determining a coordinate position of an object in the extending direction above the sensing area. The gesture control module performs precise non-contact control and fine adjustment of gears and thus stepless speed regulation of a household appliance.
