Abstract

A Human-Computer Interface (HCI) is presented in this paper to allow users to control the mouse cursor with hand gestures and voice commands. The system uses computer vision Efficient Net B4 architecture with no code ml to identify different hand gestures and map them to corresponding cursor movements. The objective is to create a more efficient and intuitive way of interacting with the system. The primary purpose is to provide a reliable and cost-effective alternative to existing mouse control systems, allowing users to control the mouse cursor with hand gestures and voice commands. The system is designed to be both intuitive and user-friendly, with a simple setup process. The highly configurable system allows users to customize how it works to suit their needs best. The system's performance is evaluated through several experiments, which demonstrate that the hand gesture-based mouse control system can accurately 100% and reliably move the mouse cursor. Overall, this system can potentially improve the quality of life and increase the independence of individuals with physical disabilities.
