What is the Gesture Recognition System?

The Gesture Recognition System recognises hand gestures like thumbs up, peace and fist. MediaPipe finds 21 hand landmarks in each frame.

A machine learning model classifies the gesture, and each gesture can trigger an action like changing volume or slides. It is built with Python, OpenCV, MediaPipe and Scikit-learn.

Best for: BE / B.Tech (CSE, IT, AI & DS), MCA, MSc and BSc Computer Science students. Good as a mini project for your semester submission.

How the Gesture Recognition System Works

1

Dataset

A public dataset is loaded, cleaned and split into train and test parts.

2

Training

The model learns patterns from the training data.

3

Testing

Accuracy, precision and recall are checked on test data.

4

Prediction

Users give new input in the web page and get the result instantly.

  1. 1
    Share your details
    Tell us your laptop type (Windows / Mac) and a time that suits you.
  2. 2
    Install AnyDesk
    Install free AnyDesk (or join Google Meet) and share the access code.
  3. 3
    We set it up
    We install the required software, import the database and configure the machine learning project.
  4. 4
    Test together
    We run the project in front of you and check every main feature.
  5. 5
    Understand it
    We explain the code, flow and database so you are ready for your viva.

  1. Install Python 3 and tick Add Python to PATH during setup.
  2. Open the project folder in VS Code and create a virtual environment: python -m venv venv.
  3. Install the libraries: pip install -r requirements.txt.
  4. Run the notebook or training script once to train the model (a trained model is also included).
  5. Start the web app with python app.py and open localhost:5000 in your browser.
