Music players are mostly used in vehicle which required interaction between human and music player system for access and control. It is reported that handling music player system in car while driving is one of the reason to distract drivers. This leads to severe accidents which are possible to life threatening. Nowadays many branded automobiles have adaptive human machine interaction system which is very expensive. To overcome the issue, hand gesture is the key to control music player system in vehicles. We developed hand gesture based music player control system in car using accelerometer sensor and PIC microcontroller. The setup is compact so that it can easily accommodate in music player location in car, less weighty and mainly affordable to general public. This system helps to access all functions of music player like change modes (i.e. FM/USB/Auxiliary/MP3 player), forward, rewind and play, stop and scan operations of songs playlist. The response time to all above functions is very quick as it uses RF trans-receivers. Our system show outperforming results about identifying accurate functions to its respective gestures and will not rely on post-processing techniques as in case of gesture recognition using image processing techniques.
