Abstract

The design and implementation of interactive computing systems that humans can engage with is known as human-computer interaction (HCI). It encompasses both desktop and embedded systems, found in a variety of devices. Humans interact with computers through input devices such as the touch pad, mouse, joystick, and keyboard. Despite the fact that input devices have improved over the years, many people still find interacting with computers and gadgets to be a frustrating experience. Intelligent gadgets that work alongside computers are being developed now, making Human-Computer Interaction simpler. Keyboards may be challenging for disabled persons to utilise in ordinary chores. Diagramming with a keyboard is not possible. The proposed work, attempts to develop a gesture-based system that allows users to control desktop mouse actions. It recognises hand gesture motions using a desktop webcam. This utilises a primitive camera to do mouse cursor activities instead of standard mouse device. The Virtual Mouse is a camera-based infrastructure that connects the user to the system. It allows users to control mouse motions and connect with machines without the usage of physical devices. By minimizing human contact with public devices such as elevators and ATMs, reduces the spread of contagious diseases in the present scenario.
