Touchless Interaction With Devices: A Study Of Gesture Based OS Navigation

Master of Computer Application

Gesture-based navigation and control is a relatively new method to interacting with operating systems (OS) that has become increasingly popular in recent years. Gesture-based navigation and control uses natural hand movements to control a controller toward an interface and interact with it rather than a typical keyboard, mouse, and touch screen. To navigate menus, scroll through material, and manipulate items on the screen, gesture-based navigation and control might use a variety of hand actions like swiping, tapping, pinching, and zooming. This method of control and navigation has many benefits, such as being more intuitive, immersive, and natural. Additionally, it might be easier for individuals to utilize if they have poor dexterity or mobility. However, there may be some disadvantages to gesture- based control and navigation. For instance, certain users can find it challenging to employ specific gestures, or the system might not be as accurate as conventional input techniques. In terms of operating system innovation, gesture-based navigation and control is a promising field, and it is likely to develop further as technology improves. It also contains one more feature called Notes Maker in this project. Using hand gestures and touch less controls, users of the software program Notes Maker can create and interact on digital whiteboards. It provides various colors to write on screen. Allowing user to switch between gesture-based drawing and traditional input methods.
