Partial Hand-tracking models exist off the shelf and the UI is simple, but reliable gesture recognition and low-latency OS control need ML tuning that vibe coding alone won't deliver.
What it would actually take: Use an existing hand landmark model such as MediaPipe, then build a gesture classifier on landmark features and map gestures to OS input events (cursor, click, Mission Control). The hard part is making recognition accurate and low-false-positive across users and lighting, which needs some computer vision and ML tuning experience plus per-platform OS integration.
