Abstract: The creation of a virtual mouse implemented through hand gestures is a big leap in the field of human computer interaction (HCI), granting a touch free way for people to control other devices. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a virtual mouse system capable of controlling cursors and accessing GUIs based on performing hand gestures. The system uses computer vision techniques specifically the hand tracking algorithms and uses predefined hand gestures and converts them into mouse movement, click and scroll actions. To use computers without physical input devices, hand gestures are accurately detected using such tools as OpenCV and machine learning models. It provides a robust alternative to traditional input methods, if the touch or physical interaction is impractical, due to its reaction time, robustness in a large number of lighting conditions and ease of use. But in fact this project focuses on gesture recognition and the key challenges such as real time processing, accuracy etc.
