Controlling Arduino using hand gestures | OpenCV Python 2021 | Computer Vision

In this video I demonstrate my new project. I control my servo motor connected to an Arduino board, simply by using my hand gestures. The openCV library is used here along with Mediapipe API to track the position of my hand. Specifically, my index finger and thumb. The hypotenuse, i.e., the distance between these fingers will determine the angle of my servo motor.

Cool stuff, MAN

[@ATHARVplayz609]

That's really cool bro

[@sumeyrakcay]

I did it. Really cool.

[@Bianchi77]

Nice info, thanks for sharing, keep it up :)

[@marinenav8]

Super 👍

[@neerajXR]

Awesome Bro Keep it Up

[@theoryandapplication7197]

create work, thanks for sharing

[@olvanrivera9847]

Ohh😮

[@duppy404]

Good work man! I'm currently working on a gesture-controlled game (space invaders). Computer vision is fascinating!

[@technoversalgeek9732]

Interesting

[@mystery_1101]

Hey update on the project?

[@marinenav8]

use firmata standart or servo firmata?

[@Cyber_Chaitu]

hello can you give the detailed list of components and how to run the program

[@rashwin4306]

Bro I had one doubt any idea on how to connect google Colab to arduino to control servos??

[@rock53355]

Why not just do it in a python script instead of colab?

[@gevermelch]

SO FUCKING COOL

[@lokeshdange4218]

Hello sir, Can you please make a full video on the tutorial for programming this project or else can you please share the code for this project.

[@sairampenjarla]

Hello. Sure I’ll make a full video. Until then, I’ll upload the code on my GitHub and will share the link in description.

[@lokeshdange4218]

@@sairampenjarla ok sir, thank you so much.

Hello sir
Plz make a full video+code to turn off and on a computer on events automatically
Or plz say me how to do it
Hope you will help me sir

[@pasinduranasinghe7978]

I think it is done using the media pipe library to identify key points of the hand while the Pyserial library communicates with Arduino

[@rahulgandhi8474]

Hey I tried to do the same but when the camera is turned on the serial port can't be used for Arduino so it always gives me an error. What did you do exactly?

[@sairampenjarla]

what error are you facing?

[@nilimakulkarni4541]

my arduino is not getting connected with python.
i installed pyserial.
import serial as Serial
arduino=serial.Serial(com30,9600)
its giving error
module serial has no attribute as Serial
plz help.

[@sairampenjarla]

try:
import serial
arduino = serial.Serial ("COM5", 9600)

[@user-vz3uf6ri5z]

good job but can u make that works with esp32 cam ?

[@sairampenjarla]

Yes we can. OpenCV supports camera input from ip address as well as long as they are on the same network.

[@dima-nw3qb]

Will you teach us how?❤

[@sairampenjarla]

The code is in the GitHub. Rep link is in description. Let me know if you are able to run it

[@JohnJohn-gy2st]

Hello 600

[@winwiths.g6155]

dude you could simply have used teachable amchines to train your model why to write such long code

[@sairampenjarla]

That’s a good recommendation. I’ll try it out.
