Virtual Paint

The Virtual Paint Project is an innovative application that allows users to draw on a virtual canvas using hand gestures. This project leverages the power of Python, Tkinter, OpenCV, and MediaPipe to detect hand movements and translate them into drawing actions on the screen.

Features

• Real-time Hand Detection: Utilizes MediaPipe to detect and track the user's hand in real-time.
• Gesture-based Drawing: Based on the hand landmarks, the application interprets gestures and draws corresponding paths on the canvas.
• Interactive GUI: A user-friendly graphical interface built with Tkinter.
• Customizable Drawing: Options to change brush colors, sizes, and other drawing settings.

Technologies Used

• Python: The core programming language used for the project.
• Tkinter: For creating the graphical user interface.
• OpenCV: For capturing video feed from the webcam and processing the frames.
• MediaPipe: For detecting and tracking hand landmarks.
