+# Hand Gesture Control Using Computer Vision
+
+This project uses computer vision and machine learning to detect hand gestures and map them to simple game controls like moving forward, left, right, jumping, and moving backward.
+
+The project uses **OpenCV** and **MediaPipe** for hand landmark detection and gesture recognition.
+
+## Features
+
+- Detects hand gestures in real-time.
+- Maps gestures to game controls:
+  - **Move Forward**: Fingers pointing towards the screen.
+  - **Move Left**: Fingers pointing left.
+  - **Move Right**: Fingers pointing right.
+  - **Move Backward**: Fingers pointing downward.
+  - **Jump**: Fingers pointing upward.
+- Implements a delay between actions to prevent rapid switching of game controls.
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.7 or higher
+- OpenCV
+- MediaPipe
+- NumPy
+
+
