Drone Controlling Using Leap Camera (Sensors)

Drones nowadays are widely used around the world for a variety of purposes including aerial videographer, photography, surveillance etc. A simple gesture controller can make the task of controlling drone much easier. In this project, the Leap Motion Controller is used for recognition of gestures, which are motion of the hand, and as a result, we can control the same. The motive of this project is to capture all points of hand and recognize the gestures and control it. The Leap Motion Controller is an eight by three centimeter unit, which comprises two stereo cameras and three infrared LEDs. This paper proposes a hand gesture recognition scheme explicitly targeted to Leap Motion camera. The two stereo cameras as well as the three infrared LEDs perform the function of tracking the infrared light having a wavelength of about 850 nanometers, which is outside the visible light spectrum. The main advantage of this system is that capturing all the points of hand & will help to control the drone without using any remote.
