Hand Gesture Controlled Smart Car Using Image Recognition

Abstract

A hand gesture-controlled smart automobile is the newest initiative in the field of human-computer interaction, and it represents the evolution toward more natural and in- tuitive user interfaces. This paper describes how OpenCV and Google’s MediaPipe are intricately coordinated to produce a control strategy that is both agile and responsive. The deployed technology translates dynamic vehicle motion commands from complex human hand gestures using advanced image recognition algorithms. This is the pinnacle of interactive technology meeting real-world locomotion needs: state-of-the-art computer vision and machine learning combined. The suggested system not only demonstrates the viability of non-contact user input for complex tasks like driving, but it also sets the way for future research in the field of autonomous vehicle guidance and control systems. This study highlights how gesture-based interfaces have the power to completely change the way people interact with cars, paving the way for more flexible and human-centered navigation systems.
