Screen Controlling using Hand Gestures
Project Area of Specialization Computer ScienceProject SummaryPROJECT SUMMARY
Today’s world is a high technological world imagining life without computer is
impossible. Now computer is an essential part of human’s day-to-day life. Vision and
gesture are the important approach for communication between human beings just in
the same way as keyboard and mouse play a role for interacting with computer.
Numbers of effective techniques are available for interaction with computer and one of
them is hand gesture technique. In that technique hand gesture is used as an input
which replaces functionality of mouse and keyboard shortcut keys. Hand gesture is an
attractive and faster technique. For determining user hand distance ultrasonic sensors
are used. By using hand gesture user can communicate with computer easily and there
is no need of any physical connection between user and system. By using this technique
the traditional way of using mouse and keyboard will be change because one can then
interact with the computer with hand gestures.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES
Gesture recognition is useful in processing information from human beings that is not conveyed through speech or other methods.Our main purpose for this project is to use hand gestures to perform basic keyboard and mouse functions such as click,right,left,tab shift,shutting down PC,scroll up and scroll down.
Project Implementation MethodProject Implementation
For these amazing section we are going to implement our project by using both software and hardware.
Project can be executed under different operation conditions provided it meet its
minimum configurations. Only system files and dependant assemblies would have to be
configured in such case.
Gesture controlling is based on specifying hand position from the ultrasonic sensor. For
processing the raw data, a micro-controller is essential; for that we use Arduino UNO
board. Via USB connection the micro- controller transfers the processed and calculated
distance value which is provided by the sensor.The data which is send by the sensor is
processed in the software in PC where all the calculations are performed and the data is
matched with the predefined conditions (gesture resolution). In this model two ultrasonic
sensors are used to detect hand position and are connected to the Arduino
board.
Benefits
- Low cost.
- The given system is handy and portable, and thus can be easily carried from one
- place to another.
- The circuitry is not that complicated and thus can be easily troubleshooted.
- There are no moving parts, so device wear is not an issue.
- There is no direct contact between the user and the device, so there is no hygiene
- problem.
- Less cost for making a gesture control computer.
- This system would be designed to be those that seem natural to users, thereby
- decreasing the learning time required.
- They will reduce our need for devices like mouse, keys, remote control or keys for interaction with the electronic devices.
