Hand Signs

A Report from the RumiCar Niigata Branch

The self-driving project “RumiCar” is currently at Level 2, but we have now entered a new phase of trial and error, aiming to achieve “Level 5” — full autonomous driving.

As a major first step, we adopted “MediaPipe,” Google’s open-source framework, in order to master advanced image-processing techniques. We implemented a “hand-sign remote control” that analyzes hand movements from camera footage in real time to operate the machine.

This page explains how this system works.
