Abstract: ABSTRACT: The Virtual Mouse Control by Hand Gesture is an innovative touchless human-computer interaction system that replaces traditional input devices with real-time hand gesture recognition. This invention leverages computer vision and deep learning techniques, using OpenCV and MediaPipe to detect and track hand movements via a webcam. By mapping specific gestures to mouse functions such as cursor movement, clicking, scrolling, and dragging, the system provides Designerl to enhance accessibility, ergonomics, and hygiene, this technology is particularly beneficial tor individuals with mobility impairments and environments where physical contact should be minimized, such as healthcare and public workspaces. The syst~m ensures high accuracy and minimal latency. making it suitable for gaming, virtual r~ality (VR), assistive technology This invention addresses common challenges such as gesture misclassification, lighting variations, and tracking instability by incorporating adaptive filtering and potential deep learning enhancements. Future improvements include multi-hand gesture support, customizable controls.
