Abstract: According to the Indian statistics, the stroke rate is higher compared to other countries. It is approximately 1.8 million Indians out of 1.2 billion Indians suffering from stroke every year. As a result of this brain cells get damaged which leads to paralysis. To help the stroke patients out of its researchers have found a solution by creating hand gestures that will help them perform daily functions easily. The gesture made by hand will be the input instead of a mouse or keyboard. The main aim is to read and detect the hand gestures by using high-resolution cameras and process the images using convolution neural networks by the process of edge detection.
Keywords: Hand gesture, Convolution Neural Network, Edge Detection.
