Make you crave music like never before!

A virtual guitar based on gesture recognition. Works on computer vision using webcams.

###Dependencies

Python 2.7.*
Numpy
OpenCV Python : See setup instructions here.

###Setting up

Start the server.py script.
Visit http://localhost:12000 in your browser.
To share your tracks, make sure your computer is connected to the internet.

###Using

Put red, green and blue strips on your first three fingers.
Use your left hand to make guitar modes (A, E, etc).
Use your right hand (with a red strip) to strum a chord. And that's it.

###Working

The video frames are converted to HSV color space.
HSV frames are filtered to detect the position of fingers (openCV).
The positions of fingers determine the mode of playback.
Strumming is identified by checking the positon of the right hand between frames.
