Muhammad Idrees , Ashfaq Ahmad , Muhammad Arif Butt , and Hafiz Muhammad Danish

Abstract

Presentations have a significant role in different fields of life. Whether you are a student, an entrepreneur, businessman, or a corporate worker, you must have had given presentations at some point in your life. PowerPoint presentations sometimes become less lively because either you have to use the keyboard to change and operate the slides or use a dedicated gadget to perform these tasks. We aimed to enable people to control the slideshow with the gestures of hands. The applications of gestures in human-computer interaction have massively risen in the past few years. The research has tried to control different operations of the PowerPoint slideshow through gestures. This research has used Machine Learning to detect gestures with subtle differences and tried to map them with some fundamental PowerPoint slideshow controlling functions using Python.
