Turn hand tracking into a graphics interface
The Shape Creator tutorial combines MediaPipe hand tracking with Three.js rendering. A webcam supplies the input, gestures control 3D shapes, and a canvas provides visual feedback. Its source code is a small, inspectable example of connecting a perception model to an interface, rather than a model demonstration detached from an actual interaction.[3]
Teach through working visual experiments
Fun With Computer Vision collects projects in music, games and design. Examples include a hand-controlled arpeggiator, voxel editing and webcam distortions. The site offers live demonstrations and a paid collection of source code and walkthroughs, with Shape Creator available as an open-source sample.[2]
Use an instrument as a game controller
Strum Surfer recognizes calibrated chord sounds from microphone or MIDI input to control games and visualizers. Its explanation says audio processing takes place in the browser. The interaction uses the player’s instrument directly, so practice changes the behavior of a game rather than merely advancing a timer.[4]

Shape Creator tutorial
github.comA source-available browser project using MediaPipe and Three.js to create and manipulate 3D shapes with hand gestures.
Requires a WebGL-capable browser and camera access for the demo. Begin with the repository and inspect how hand landmarks change a rendered shape; the free sample introduces the approach used in the broader tutorial collection.
