MP Gesture Lib
Detect hand gestures from a webcam in 3 lines of Python
An open-source Python library that wraps MediaPipe gesture recognition into an ultra-simple API. Detect hand gestures from webcam frames in just 3 lines of code! Supports finger counting (1-10), arithmetic gestures (plus, minus, multiply, divide, equal, clear), and custom ML models. Comes with a bundled gesture model out of the box with zero external setup. Fully compatible with all MediaPipe versions, from legacy to the latest 0.10.35+ release.
Hey PH!
👋 I built this after extracting gesture logic from my gesture-controlled calculator project. Kept reusing the same CV boilerplate across projects — decided to package it properly.
The bundled model handles arithmetic gestures. Finger counting (1–10) is pure geometry — no ML needed. Works with the latest mediapipe version.
Would love feedback on what gestures you'd want supported next! 🙏
