Control of Computer Pointer Using Hand Gesture Recognition in Motion Pictures
This paper presents a user interface designed to enable computer cursor control through hand detection and gesture classification. A comprehensive hand dataset comprising 6720 image samples was collected, encompassing four distinct classes: fist, palm, pointing to the left, and pointing to the right. The images were captured from 15 individuals in various settings, including simple backgrounds with different perspectives and lighting conditions. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained on this dataset to accurately predict labels for each captured image and measure their similarity. The system incorporates defined commands for cursor movement, left-click, and right-click actions. Experimental results indicate that the proposed algorithm achieves a remarkable accuracy of 91.88% and demonstrates its potential applicability across diverse backgrounds.
