Control your computer with your hands!
Want to watch videos while snacking? Need to check a recipe while cooking? Or just too cozy in bed to move? With this application, simply show hand gestures in front of your webcam to manage video playback and scroll through web pages.
Using Google MediaPipe's official gesture recognition model, our software provides accurate and quick responses.
| Gesture | Function | Scenario |
|---|---|---|
| ✊ Fist | Pause | Got a call? Make a fist to pause. |
| 🖐️ Open Hand | Play | Back? Open your hand to continue. |
| ✌️ Peace Sign | Fullscreen | Show a peace sign for full screen. |
| 👍 Thumbs Up | Fast Forward 20s | Skip boring parts with a thumbs up. |
| 👎 Thumbs Down | Rewind 20s | Didn't hear that? Give a thumbs down to rewind. |
| ☝️ Pointer Up | Scroll Up | Looking at a recipe? Point up to scroll. |
| 👇 Pointer Down | Scroll Down | Keep reading? Point down to scroll. |
No need to activate anything; gestures work right away! Hold a gesture for 0.3 seconds to trigger the action.
