Wanna doodle in the Air? You're at the right place!
A virtual painter to draw using hand-gestures. It uses a custom hand-tracking module implemented with the MediaPipe library to detect hand-gestures and OpenCV to combine the drawing to the web-cam feed.
- Multi-color support.
- Pixel-wise erasing and clear-all functionality.
In the "Selection Mode", move the hand such that the pointer formed by the first two fingers hovers over the icon of the required tool. The selected tool will be highlighted accordingly.
In the "Editing Mode", use the tip of the index finger to make the desired strokes.
- Enter the "Selection Mode".
- Choose the "Eraser" tool from the menu-bar as shown above.
- Enter the "Editing Mode".
- Use the tip of the index finger to erase the required region.
In the "Selection Mode", hover over the "Clear-All" icon in the top-left corner.
Ensure that your python version is between 3.6-3.8 as MediaPipe doesn't support other python versions.
