Hand Gesture Recognition using Webcam (original) (raw)

American Journal of Intelligent Systems, 2017

Abstract

The communication between the user and the computer can be done through various input devices such as thekeyboard, mouse etc. However, this paper presents a more natural and intuitive form of communication i.e. via hand gestures. The gesture performed by the user is recognised and the action specific to it is performed, thus eliminating the use of any of the hardware input devices completely. This method makes use of image processing to recognise the gestures and has built in functions for every gesture provided by the PyAutoGUI module. It is coded in Python and uses the OpenCV library. Experiments show that the implementation is reliable enough for practical use.
