Recognition and Automation System for Hand Gestures

Abstract

Our efforts were mainly focused to have machine and software
interaction during this project. We were determined to build a
small rotor car with miniature components and have it establish
connection with our laptop through several media. Software is
coded in python and detects hand gestures and our attempt was
to amplify these gestures in the form of signals which are
discussed later. The goal was to achieve mechanical movement
of any nature or mechanical response using a non-mechanical
approach. In this project we drove a small mechanical rotor car
using various small commands generated by our hand gestures
hence achieving our objective and supporting our research. We
discovered through this project that a machine – software
interaction is possible and can be amplified beyond imagination.
In this project let us explore one simple but fascinating
possibility of such phenomenon
