  • Abstract
    The requirement of simple, yet sophisticated user interface has driven the IT professionals to develop enhanced devices ranging from the basic punch-card system which were used for the earliest computer devices, to the widely used keyboard, mouse and the latest touch screen technology which are emerging on today´s computers. These improved gadgets and technology basically reduce the invisible barrier between the everyday user and the system. However, these devices have their limitations and inconvenient for the user to interact with the system. To simplify this, a new system is developed which takes human gestures into consideration to perform the corresponding operation on the computer device. Hand Gesture Mouse Interface is developed to capture the hand gesture from the user through web camera. The primitive hand movement for the respective gesture is used. The relative positioning of the hand is being used in the system to ensure that the gesture recognition is made accurately. The Hand Gesture Mouse Interface simplifies the procedure which outperforms the mouse operation that is in vogue and also provides a low cost and easy to use interfacing for the user.
