Advancements in the field of computer have been a crucial point in the history of mankind.It has proved to be beneficial in many countless fields.Input and output devices which are of utmost importance have also undergone numerous changes.Human Computer Interface (HCI) is an important part of computer systems.Mouse which is one of the input devices is constantly evolving giving rise to various alternatives like touchscreens.But still traditional mouse is prevalent.In this paper, we have developed a virtual mouse which can potentially replace traditional mouse.It detects hand in the live feed, recognizes hand gestures and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classifies them and accordingly appropriate mouse operation is done.Hand gestures which make up a crucial part of HCI are employed in this system.
