Unlocking the Language of the Body: How Gesture Recognition is Redefining Human–Computer Interaction

gesture control

For more than half a century, the relationship between humans and computers has been defined by mechanical interfaces—keyboards, mice, touchscreens, and graphical menus that translate human intent into machine-readable commands. While these interfaces enabled the digital revolution, they also imposed…...
