AlternativeInteractionSolution

This project was generated with Angular CLI version 12.2.11. This project is incomplete and is more of a proof-of-concept idea, rather than a fully-fledged recipe website. It explores an alternate way of interacting with a website: by having a camera read hand gestures.

Implemented Gestures

Common gestures:

  • Two open hands = ingredient popup if applicable
  • Two closed hands = forward
  • one closed hand = close modal, back
  • open hand = search bar focus, if applicable
  • 2 point = quick jump instructions if applicable
  • 1 point = quick jump top

Custom Gestures:

  • 1 point one open = scroll up
  • 1 point one closed = scroll down

Future things to do

  • Swipe gestures for "tabbing" through navbar and recipe bullets
  • Gesture for "click" and "double click" commands
  • Adjust camera to not lag so much when starting
  • Enable searchbar functionalities

Development server

Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Code scaffolding

Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.

Build

Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory.

Running unit tests

Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

Running end-to-end tests

Run ng e2e to execute the end-to-end tests via a platform of your choice. To use this command, you need to first add a package that implements end-to-end testing capabilities.
