Development of Platform Independent Hand Gesture Controlled Wearable Mouse
Tushar Barot, Saurabh Karhadkar · 2018
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is an ever growing and a commercially developing technology. Smart devices and wearable electronics are becoming very popular, but as of now, there is no available alternative to practically replace the conventional mouse. This paper presents a design for a fully operational hand-gesture controlled wearable mouse. It is easy to wear and remove that makes it ideal for daily use. It is a platform-independent design using Human Interface Device (HID) technology. It is a simple plug and play type device without the need for a special driver and other software support. From motion detection point of view, what are the differences between accelerometer and gyroscope are also clearly explained here with help of graphs and results. The suitable sensor has been used to detect hand gestures and accordingly change the position of the mouse pointer.
