Hand Gesture Recognition using Machine learning in Python - Asha Sohal - Bog

Hand gesture-controlled presentations using Machine Learning (ML) involve using a computer vision-based system to interpret hand movements and gestures as commands to control presentations. Gather a dataset of hand gesture images or videos, capturing various hand movements and gestures that correspond to different presentation commands (e.g., next slide, previous slide, zoom in, zoom out). Clean and preprocess the collected data by resizing, normalizing, and augmenting images or videos to enhance the model's robustness. Utilize Machine Learning techniques, often employing Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) or other deep learning architectures, to train a model on the collected dataset. This model learns to recognize and classify different hand gestures. Once trained, the model is capable of recognizing specific hand gestures in real-time. It can identify gestures such as open palm for next slide, closed fist for previous slide, pinch for zoom in, spreading fingers for zoom out, etc.
