Real Time Hand Detection using SSD and processing the detected hand to identify the fingers in the hand.
For Hand Detection in real time, I am using the published work by Victor Dibia, where they have used a Single Shot Multi-Box Detector (SSD), and I am using their pretrained model on MobileNet (v1).
For Finger Detection, I am using image processing techniques like Gaussian Blur as well as finding Convex Hull and Convexity Defects to find points of finger tips and points between the fingers.
