In this video, we build a virtual mouse using hand gestures with Python.
No physical mouse, no keyboard — just your camera and your hand ✋🖱️

Using OpenCV, MediaPipe, and PyAutoGUI, we control the mouse cursor, drag, and right-click in real time using hand gestures. This is a powerful example of computer vision + automation in Python.
code : https://github.com/Nagarajuvuliki/nag...
We also discuss how you can extend this project by adding:

Left click & scroll gestures

Cursor smoothing

Gesture shortcuts

Face mapping (head/eye movement control)

Full touch-free control system

This project is perfect for:

Python developers

Automation lovers

AI & computer vision beginners

Students building real-world projects

👉 Full source code explained step by step
👉 Beginner friendly + extendable
👉 Part-2 (Face controlled mouse) coming soon
