HandTrackerModule.py\u003c/h4\u003e\nThis code is used to track hands from a video source. \u003c/br\u003e\nRun this code to check hand detection from video\n\nThe code is well-commented so the working can be found in comments\n\n\u003ch4\u003e2. gesture_volume_control.py\u003c/h4\u003e\nThis code is responsible for controlling the system volume using finger gestures. \u003c/br\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e3. screen_recorder.py\u003c/h4\u003e\nThe default windows Xbox recorder didn't allow to record overlays on screen so I decided to make my own screen recorder\n\nThis require another library to read everything on screen\n\n    pip install pyautogui\n\nFor now I am running the screen recorder code with different console so that we can have both screen_recorder.py and gesture_volume_control.py running simultaneously.\nWe can also have them running from same console using \u003cb\u003e python multiprocessing \u003c/b\u003e code for which I will upload later\n\n\u003c/br\u003e\n\n## Running the code\n1. Run \u003ca href=\"/gesture_volume_control.py\"\u003egesture_volume_control.py\u003c/a\u003e for controlling the volume using finger tip gesture \u003c/br\u003e\n2. Run \u003ca href=\"/HandTrackerModule.py\"\u003eHandTrackerModule.py\u003c/a\u003e just for checking the working of hand tracking by Mediapipe Hands \u003c/br\u003e\n3. Run \u003ca href=\"/screen_recoreder.py\"\u003escreen_recoreder.py\u003c/a\u003e for using python to record your screen. Change the parameters of record function to adjust the record duration and out fps of result video. \u003c/br\u003e\n\n\nSo basically we basically have 3 different functionalities in a single Repository\n\n\u003c/br\u003e\n\n## Output Video\n\u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1of42OIh8z3cti1n4WN83p1HRQ0-WIiId/view?usp=sharing\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"/screen.png\" width=600 /\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fzafarrehan%2Fgesture_volume_control","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fzafarrehan%2Fgesture_volume_control","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fzafarrehan%2Fgesture_volume_control/lists"}
