Abstract

Proposed is an application that gives visual commands to the computer without touching the keyboard or mouse for performing certain actions. This puts together a simple laser gesture recognition application and used it to control Windows Media Player and Microsoft PowerPoint. This is far more comfortable than using a remote control because you don't have to look for the correct buttons in the dark. All you have to do is to make a few simple gestures anywhere in the camera's field of view with a laser pointer.
