Abstract
The aim of this paper is to present the methodology for hand detection and propose the finger detection method. The detected hand and finger can be used to implement the non-contact mouse. This technology can be used to control the home devices such as curtain and television. Skin color is used to segment the hand region from background and counter is extracted from the segmented hand. Analysis of counter gives us the location of finger tip in the hand. We have performed extensive experiment and achieve very encouraging result.
