Controlling Mouse Cursor Using Hand Gestures

In the field of human-computer interaction ,input devices like keyboard, mouse have been the standard method of communication. However there is smoother and more natural way of communicating through the implementation of hand gesture. This study address the hands free application to control the cursor, aiming to develop a system that allow users to control the computer cursor using hand gesture. Python and OpenCV are powerful tools that can be utilized to recognize and interpret hand gestures. By implementing image processing techniques, developers can create software that can accurately identify different gestures. The PyAutoGUI module provides built-in functions for recognizing and responding to various gestures, making the process seamless and efficient. Keywords — Gesture control, Real-time mouse system, HCI, Python, MediaPipe, OpenCV, PyAutoGui

Abstract

In the field of human-computer interaction ,input devices like keyboard, mouse have been the standard method of communication. However there is smoother and more natural way of communicating through the implementation of hand gesture. This study address the hands free application to control the cursor, aiming to develop a system that allow users to control the computer cursor using hand gesture. Python and OpenCV are powerful tools that can be utilized to recognize and interpret hand gestures. By implementing image processing techniques, developers can create software that can accurately identify different gestures. The PyAutoGUI module provides built-in functions for recognizing and responding to various gestures, making the process seamless and efficient. Keywords — Gesture control, Real-time mouse system, HCI, Python, MediaPipe, OpenCV, PyAutoGui
