AI based mouse using Face Recognition and Hand Gesture Recognition

Abstract

The computer mouse is one of the incredible inventions of Human-Computer Interaction. Wireless or Bluetooth mice we use currently are not free devices as they require batteries and dongles to plug into the Computer. Since computer vision is at its pinnacle and is used in many different aspects of day-to-day life, such as Face Recognition, Automatic car, and Color detection, we here are using it, to create an AI mouse by using hand tip detection and hand gestures. We also add face recognition using the Eigen face algorithm to revamp its security. The algorithm will first confirm the user’s authenticity by scanning their face once confirmed then one can access his computer through hand gestures, one can perform click and scroll the mouse without using the hardware mouse. The algorithm uses Eigenface and deep learning for the detection of hands.
