Abstract: Gesture-based interaction has become an important component of modern human–computer interfaces, enabling users to communicate with digital systems in a more intuitive and contactless manner. This study presents the development of a real-time hand gesture recognition system capable of detecting and counting raised fingers using computer vision techniques. The proposed framework combines OpenCV for video acquisition and processing with MediaPipe’s hand landmark detection model for precise tracking of finger positions. The system captures live video through a standard RGB camera, extracts hand landmarks from each frame, and applies a rule-based algorithm to determine the number of extended fingers for both hands independently. The solution operates efficiently across varying lighting conditions and hand orientations while maintaining real-time performance on conventional hardware. The key contribution of this work is the implementation of a lightweight, affordable, and scalable approach for gesture recognition, demonstrating the practicality of computer vision for natural human–machine interaction.
