## 🚀 Getting Started
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following installed:
- **VisualStudio** 
- Download Visual Studio from [LINK](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=Community&channel=Release&version=VS2022&source=VSLandingPage&cid=2030&passive=false)
- **OpenCV** 📦
- Download OpenCV 4.10.0 for Windows [LINK](https://opencv.org/releases/) and extract it to `C:\opencv`.
- Add `C:\opencv\build\bin` to your system's PATH environment variable.
### Building the Project
1. Open your Visual Studio project. 🖥️
2. Go to `Project -> Properties`. ⚙️
3. Navigate to `C/C++ -> General -> Additional Include Directories` and add the paths to your OpenCV `include` directories. 📂
4. Navigate to `Linker -> General -> Additional Include Directories` and add the paths to your OpenCV `lib` directories. 📂
5. Under `Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies`, add the OpenCV libraries you need (for debug mode : `opencv_world4100d.lib`). 📚
### Running the Project
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/EchoSingh/HandGestRecognition.git
```
2. Build and run the project in Visual Studio. 🛠️🎬
Enjoy recognizing hand gestures with your webcam! 📸👌 [Screenshot](https://github.com/EchoSingh/HandGestRecognition/blob/main/Screenshot.png)
