VIRTUAL MOUSE USING HAND GESTURE

Abstract

This project presents a new approach for controlling mouse movement using a real-time camera. Major approaches consist of adding more buttons or changing the position of the tracking ball of mouse. Instead, we suggest to change the design of hardware. Our concept is to use a camera and computer vision technology, as image segmentation and gesture recognition, to control mouse tasks (clicking and scrolling) and we show how it can perform everything current mouse devices can. This project shows how to build this mouse control system.
