Abstract - Computers are used on a daily basis. To use them,

This device is based on tilt sensing using a three-axis accelerometer [2]. The key elements are the microacclerometer and an Arduino microcontroller board that is mounted to a thin and lightweight glove [3]. Mouse Glove enables the client to wear a glove and control the cursor through various hand placements and finger presses. Clients can work their PCs with their hands in mid-air without the bother of work areas surfaces. Mouse Glove interfaces with a PC utilizing standard USB. The PC’s should have Windows, Mac, or Linux OS’s having java installed. As the software implementation is java based, it can run on any computer hardware, as it makes a java virtual machine on that specific machine. The java program converts various gesture or signals to native mouse control codes. Once coded, utilizing just a single hand, the glove can undoubtedly be utilized without looking, making it ideal for installed/wearable conditions.

it is essential to interface with a user interface (UI) system. Signal acknowledgment or gestures can be viewed as a route for PCs to start the comprehension of human non-verbal communication therefore fabricating a wealthier extension amongst machines and people. The mouse glove is a new hand gesture input device that recognizes hand gestures and interprets them into computer signals using mathematical algorithms. This device is based on tilt sensing using a threeaxis accelerometer. This paper gives an account of the outline and advancement of a PC pointing gadget with accelerometer based development control.

1. INTRODUCTION

2. SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

Computers are used on a daily basis. To use them, it is essential to interface with a user interface (UI) system. UI system may be text-based or graphical based as used in UNIX shell or Microsoft Windows family of operating systems respectively. Signal acknowledgment or gestures can be viewed as a route for PCs to start the comprehension of human non-verbal communication therefore fabricating a wealthier extension amongst machines and people [1]. The mouse glove (see Fig. 1) is a new hand gesture input device that recognizes hand gestures and interprets them into computer signals using mathematical algorithms.

Mouse Glove system (see Fig. 2) consists of the following components: 1. Arduino Uno Microcontroller: Arduino is an open source hardware and software platform for making interactive projects that can sense and control the physical world. It is used for connecting the real world with the computer [4] [5]. 2. 3-Axis Microacclerometer: It is a sensor for getting the analog inputs corresponding to physical acceleration and tilt of the hand [2]. We used the module ADXL335 (see Fig. 3(a)) from Analog Devices. It quantifies acceleration with full-scale scope of ±3 g. Here it is used in tilt-detecting application for quantifying the static acceleration of gravity.
