9. Mudras in Motion-Interactive Design Using Machine Learning





Mudras in Motion is an interactive design that uses Wekinator, incorporating Mudras hand gestures inspired by traditional dance movements from India as machine learning input. For the output, data transferred from Wekinator, Processing, and Arduino controls robot arms inspired by the motion of a peacock's wings. Combining all the elements, creates the cyber-physical system design.
