Handgesture

The document contains a Python script that uses OpenCV to capture video from a webcam and detect finger positions and names using specified landmarks. It counts how many fingers are raised or lowered based on their positions and displays the results in real-time. The script continues to run until the 'q' key is pressed, at which point it releases the webcam and closes all OpenCV windows.
