RAW Gestures

An Arduino project which is based on controlling video functions using gestures with three axis accelerometer.

The problem RAW Gestures solves

RAW Gesture is an Arduino based project used to control the functions in videos.
We are using a 3 axis accelerometer.

We have a total of 4 gestures.

  1. Moving the accelerometer in the right direction, we can fast forward the video.
  2. Moving the accelerometer in the left direction, we can rewind the video.
  3. Moving the accelerometer in the upward direction, we can increase the volume of the video.
  4. Moving the accelerometer in the downward direction, we can decrease the volume of the video.

Challenges we ran into

Lack of Hardware - Initially the idea was to control the gestures using wireless module. Due to lack of wireless module we were not able to make it wireless.
