crazy-hand: flying a Crazyflie with hand gestures using the AI-deck

[gelanchez]

Hey everyone,

Sharing a project I've been working on: https://github.com/gelanchez/crazy-hand

You control the Crazyflie with your hand. The AI-deck streams grayscale camera images over WiFi. The PC detects gestures with MediaPipe and sends commands back. Hardware is a Crazyflie 2.1, an AI-deck and a Crazyradio PA.

It includes custom firmware for both the STM32 and the GAP8. The ground station runs as separate Python processes that talk through iceoryx2. It has a GUI that shows the live camera feed and telemetry, and you can change flight settings on the fly.

Feedback is welcome, and thanks for this great platform!

Cool project! Especially the hand tracking must be a fun way to fly your Crazyflie
