Gesmote
A hands free presentation controller powered by simple hand gestures
Project Overview
Gesmote is an innovative watchOS application that revolutionizes how we interact with presentations. By leveraging the Apple Watch's advanced sensors and CoreML capabilities, Gesmote enables truly hands free presentation control through intuitive hand gestures. The app recognizes natural hand movements and translates them into presentation commands, allowing presenters to maintain eye contact with their audience and use both hands freely for gesturing and emphasis. This creates a more engaging and natural presentation experience.
