Virtual Writing Recognition System Using Deep Learning

This project demonstrates a virtual system that allows people to write in the air with just their hand movements. Through a normal webcam, the movement of your index finger is tracked and then drawn on a screen, creating a way of hand writing in a digital mode and without any contact to a surface. When shapes are written, they are then recognized and converted to readable numbers, symbols or Kannada letters. In number mode, it can also calculate simple very short calculations instantaneously. The entire system operates through a small webpage with a secure login and offers two modes of operation for demonstration. The intention behind this project is to allow writing in a more natural and contact-free way using simple tools that can be easily acquired by the user. This style of writing can be especially useful in classrooms, collaborative communication, or creative activities where using a pen, paper, or any physical writing tool is unnecessary.
