HandTracker
HandTracker is a webcam hand-tracking tool that turns finger curls into keyboard inputs.
It uses OpenCV and MediaPipe to detect one hand in real time. When you curl a finger, the app presses a matching keyboard key. When you open the finger again, the key is released.
The thumb detection also checks for a closed fist, so the thumb should count as pressed when it is tucked across the palm.
