Kiosk machines have gained good popularity among the general public as they are easy to operate and provide a good interactive interface. As a result, multiple users use the kiosk machine throughout the day to find the information they are looking for. Users interact with the kiosk machine by the means of touching its screen or using the buttons. Due to this, it is observed that throughout the day hundreds or even thousands of people end up touching the surface of the kiosk machine. Because of this hygiene cannot be maintained as it is not possible to sanitize the kiosk machine after each use. This has become a serious issue considering the effects that the Covid-19 pandemic had on the world. Multiple people touching the same surface is one of the most common ways through which the virus can spread. To help deal with this problem we have designed a gesture control system using deep learning techniques through which kiosk machines can be operated in a touch-less way.
