An Application written in C++ for windows operating system capable of recognising gestures and executing the command associated with that gesture using OpenCV.
The video input is fed into the system using a webcam and then it is converted to HSV. We then use a bright coloured object ( such that it does not resembels to other colors in the surrounding ) and set up its threshold to track its movement . The path made by the object (gesture) is then matched with the set of predefined gestures and the associated keystroke is performed.
