Some projects are useful immediately.
Some are useful because they make you learn by playing.
Control Cursor With Hand is one of those experiments.
Repo:
https://github.com/tecnomanu/control-cursor-with-hand
The idea is simple: use computer vision to track hand gestures and control the cursor.
It is a hobby project, but it connects with topics I care about:
- human-computer interaction
- accessibility
- gesture interfaces
- OpenCV experiments
- natural controls for desktop workflows
Not every open-source repo needs to be a product.
Some repos are a place to test an idea, learn a library and see what feels possible.
For me, these small experiments often feed back into bigger AI tooling work.
Agents, browser automation, computer vision and local tools all share one thing: they expand what software can do on your machine.
This one is just a fun step in that direction.
If you have built gesture-based controls or accessibility experiments, I would like to see what worked and what failed.
