Virtual Mouse with Hand Gestures Using Machine Learning

Scientists and researchers are currently developing ways to make the electronic devices more user friendly and less reliant on physical interaction. In line with this trend, this research study has proposed an interactive computer system, which can function without the need for a traditional mouse. Instead, we plan to leverage the power of cameras and computer vision technologies to manage tasks that would typically require a mouse, such as clicking and scrolling. This research study demonstrates how this system can replicate all the functionality of existing mouse devices, without requiring the physical use of one. To achieve this, we will be utilizing programming languages such as Python and cutting-edge computer vision software like OpenCV. These tools will be instrumental to build a system that can interpret visual input from a camera, translate it into commands, and execute them in real-time. By doing so, we hope to create a more intuitive and user-friendly way of interacting with the devices used, without the limitations of traditional mouse devices.
