Gesture Voice: Revolutionizing Human-Computer Interaction with an AI-Driven Virtual Mouse System

2024-04-13T06:48:45+00:00

In this paper, we propose an innovative AI-driven virtual mouse system that seamlessly integrates hand gestures and voice commands for intuitive interaction with computing devices. Traditional input methods such as physical mice and keyboards can be limiting for users with mobility impairments or in scenarios where hands-free operation is desired. Our system addresses these challenges by leveraging advancements in computer vision and natural language processing to enable users to control the mouse cursor and execute commands through hand gestures and voice input.

The core of our system lies in the fusion of hand gesture recognition and voice assistant technologies, providing users with a versatile and efficient means of interacting with computers and other smart devices. Through a combination of depth sensing cameras and machine learning algorithms, the system accurately detects and interprets a wide range of hand gestures, allowing users to perform actions such as cursor movement, clicking, dragging, and scrolling with ease.

Furthermore, security is a paramount concern in modern computing environments, especially with the increasing prevalence of AI-driven interfaces. To address this, our system incorporates robust security measures, including user authentication through voice biometrics and encryption of communication channels to safeguard sensitive data.

Overall, our AI virtual mouse system represents a significant advancement in human-computer interaction, offering a seamless and secure interface that empowers users to interact with computing devices more naturally and efficiently.

2024-10-07T04:19:53+00:00

In the broadest sense, sustainability refers to the ability to maintain or support a process continuously over time. In business and policy contexts, sustainability seeks to prevent the depletion of natural or physical resources, so that they will remain available for the long term. The 17 SDGs and 169 targets are part of a transformative agenda - the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted by 193 Member States at the UN General Assembly Summit in September 2015, and which came into effect on 1 January 2016. At the core of this global agenda for 2030 is the principle of universality: ‘Leave No One Behind’. Development in all its dimensions must include all people, everywhere, and should be built through the participation of everyone, especially the most vulnerable and marginalised. This comprehensive agenda recognises that it is no longer sufficient just to focus on economic growth, but on fairer and more equal societies, and a safer and more prosperous planet.

In order to fully utilize the outcomes of education, it is important to ensure that education is meeting the minimal prescribed standards to fulfil ever-changing requirements worldwide. Accreditation, a powerful tool of quality assurance, is used to assess the national system of higher education. Accreditation is considered as a quality stamp, which ensures that an accredited institution/programme has undergone a rigorous process of external peer evaluation based on predefined standards/principles and complies with the minimum requirements. This paper focuses on the outcomes of accreditation to enhance excellence in higher education institutions (HEIs) based on a literature review and empirical research. Previous studies in various national contexts are reviewed here, based on which, the question of whether accreditation can really enhance the excellence of HEIs is answered and factors behind it are explored.
