I came to say that this will probably make our fan constantly spin until I saw that this is already in the TODO list of the project.<p>Every client side feature such as background blur or face detection will make my (or every other person&#x27;s I know) fans spin constantly so I will never use that feature.<p>I don&#x27;t know if there&#x27;s a potential software way to solve this problem or do we have to wait until everyone&#x27;s using an m2 or i8 cpu?

How is this better than the already available HandPose <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;tensorflow&#x2F;tfjs-models&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;handpose" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;tensorflow&#x2F;tfjs-models&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;handpo...</a> ?

if you are bald and your head is in the frame, it detects your head as hand.

WebXR is a JS API that, among other things, allows you to track hands using the device&#x27;s capabilities. Handtrack.js is a good alternative for browsers that are not compatible with WebXR.

I used handtrack.js a few months ago to write an in browser theremin. It&#x27;s not perfect but it allowed me to write the whole thing in about three hours and only kind of blew up my 2011 mbp.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;msmedes&#x2F;theremin" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;msmedes&#x2F;theremin</a>

It detects my face as a hand with a score of 0.900+ especially when I tilt my head backwards.

A better model is BlazePalm inside MediaPipe&#x2F;Google FOSS
