Abstract
Hand gesture recognition system provides a natural, innovative and modern means of non-verbal communication. It has a wide application area in human-computer interaction and sign language. This paper proposes a way to control the position of the cursor, volume control and brightness control with the bare hands without using any electronic device. While operations such as clicking and dragging objects will be performed with different hand gestures, the proposed system will only require a webcam as an input device. The software required to implement the proposed system is OpenCV and Python. The output of the camera will be displayed on the screen of the system and will be further adjustable by the user. The python dependencies that will be used for implementing this system are NumPy, math, WX.
