|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | The increasing demand for natural and intuitive human-computer interaction has motivated the development of gesture-based control systems. This paper presents a Virtual Hand Cursor Control System that enables users to manipulate the computer cursor using real-time hand gestures captured via a standard webcam. Leveraging MediaPipe for robust hand tracking and PyAutoGUI for cursor manipulation, the system recognizes multiple gestures such as pointing, pinching, peace sign, and fist to perform cursor movement, left-click, right-click, and control toggling respectively. The system incorporates configurable sensitivity and smoothing parameters to enhance user experience and accuracy. Extensive experiments demonstrate the system’s effectiveness in diverse lighting and background conditions, achieving smooth and responsive cursor control without specialized hardware. This work contributes a scalable, accessible, and open-source solution for gesture-based cursor control, with potential applications in accessibility, gaming, and touchless interfaces. |
