| TITLE | Hand Gesture Control Presentation System: A Computer Vision Framework for Touchless Slide Navigation |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | Conventional presentation systems depend on physical input devices such as keyboards, mice, or remote clickers, which can restrict a presenter's mobility and reduce natural interaction with an audience [1][2]. Hand gesture recognition offers a touchless and intuitive alternative by allowing presenters to control slides directly through hand movements captured by a standard webcam. This paper presents a Hand Gesture Control Presentation System that applies computer vision and machine learning techniques to detect, track, and classify hand gestures in real time. The system uses a hand-landmark detection pipeline [3][4] to extract twenty-one key points per hand, from which geometric features such as finger angles and inter-joint distances are computed. These features are passed to a trained classifier that recognizes gestures including swipe right, swipe left, pointer mode, and session-end, which are mapped to corresponding presentation commands such as next slide, previous slide, cursor control, and session termination. The proposed framework removes the dependency on physical remotes, improves accessibility, and provides a smooth, interactive presentation experience. Experimental evaluation shows that the system achieves reliable real-time gesture recognition with low latency under normal lighting conditions. |
