Hand Cricket Game Application Using Computer Vision

Abstract

Hand cricket is an attempt to experience the childhood entrainment of playing cricket using our hands. This paper presents an application built to play Hand cricket using a computer vision-based real-time 3D hand gesture recognition system. To play the game the user will give inputs using hand gestures. These hand gestures will be identified using a real-time computer vision system that runs based on a CNN model. Since in this game both players must play simultaneously the computer also comes up with a number from 1 to 6 when a hand gesture is being read and recognized. The core engine of building this app is an image classifier that classifies a picture of a hand into 1,2,3,4,5,6 and none. This paper shows an interactive simple game application developed, that tries to make the game feel more natural and as if playing with a real person.
