Mouse-Free and Gesture Control
- 0 Collaborators
Gestures can have a major impact on laptops just like on mobile phones. This this project makes the life of people easier by performing various tasks using just certain gestures. On the other hand this can also be used in scenario where a patient is unable to move their body. In such a case this can be used to play games which will work as an exercise and also some fun for the patient's mundane life. ...learn more

Overview / Usage
A python script developed here, detects a face and finds the landmarks for mouth and eyes. These landmarks are used as a mouse. Every angle and distance these landmarks move is used as a factor to control various mouse functions like scrolling, left click, right click. Apart from that, the person's hand is used as gesture to control various applications embedded in your PC.
Methodology / Approach
It is built using dlib facial landmarks detector on OpenCV using python. It first finds all the landmarks and the distance and angles between them. Now every change in distance and angles between these points is recorded and functionality has been assigned.
Technologies Used
OpenCV, dlib library, python gui
