HandTracker or HandTrakingModule

It is a simple module to detect hands and do simple projects with hand recognition and machine learning.

Hand Detector

Uses:

1. To find and detect hand.
2. To find 21 landmarks in each hand.
3. To find the distance between any 2 landmarks.
4. To find if a finger is up or not.
5. Can create a rectangle for the best hand detection zone.

Functions and their least requirements:

1. HandDetector.FindHands: Requires image (with atleast one hand); Returns an image with hand landmarks drawn on it
2. HandDetector.FindLocation: Requires image (with atleast one hand); Returns location of hand landmarks lmloc (dict), location of hand handloc (dict)
3. HandDetector.DrawLandmarks: Requires image (with atleast one hand), index int value more than -1 but less than 21; Returns None
4. HandDetector.fingersUp: Requires image (with atleast one hand); Returns info dict [fingername: bool]
5. HandDetector.fingersUp_PROTO: Requires None; Returns info dict [fingername: bool]
6. HandDetector.findDistance: Requires image (with atleast one hand), id numbers of any two landmarks; Returns image with those landmarks drawn on it and a line connection those and the center point of that line, length the disance between
7. HandDetector.FindingZone: Requires image (with atleast one hand); Returns location of rectangle FindingZonedim for the best hand detection zone

Other Uses

1. It can provide all the finger names used in this module, which is stored in Fingers.
2. It can provide all the hand landmarks, which is stored in HandLandmark.
3. It can provide all the ways to flip an image by 'opencv-python', which is stored in CVFlipCodes.
4. It can provide all the corner point names used in this module, which is stored in CornerPoints.
5. It can put text at any given coordinate on the image screen with a background, with the help of PutText function.
