Jenny Han’s Status Report for 5/8/2021

This week we refined our pen tracking algorithm, finalized the GUI, and completed the calibration code.

For the pen tracking algorithm, we were able to combine acceleration data, orientation data, and hand tracking from OpenCV to get a reasonable mouse position. After meeting with our professors, we decided to use a weighted algorithm and tuned it this week to get the most accurate pen position.

For finalizing the GUI, we were able to add a delete button to further customize the hand gesture recognition.

Finally, we were able to add a calibration mode for the distance the projector is from the pen and calibrate it with OpenCV and looking for a specific color.
