The proposed system “Home Automation models using gestures” is designed for providing ease of control of home appliances to the people, especially elderly or those who are physically unable to efficiently perform day-to-day activities. Initially the images of the gestures are captured in real time using a camera placed in the room and are processed to be compared with the existing set of gestures. Based on the gesture shown, the image is then processed to attain the actual meaning of the gesture. So if the gestures match, then the particular appliance in that room is switched on or off by which it helps the user to stay at his place in the room and doesn't need to actually move to the switchboard to turn on the appliances.
