Extension summary

Gesture-Based Scroll is an extension that lets you scroll a page with hand or facial gestures (without using a mouse or keyboard).

Before using this addon you need to train it first. Please read the support page to get more info on how to use the addon. Once the addon is fully trained, please click on the - Start - button and make gestures (Up, Down, and Stop) in front of the camera to scroll the active tab. Also, make sure to place your face/hand exactly in front of the camera (within the grey rectangle). As long as the camera is ON, the addon will look for your gestures and take action accordingly. If you want to stop the inferring process, please click on the - Stop - button once.

Note: This addon is using the new AI engine called TensorFlow. Please visit the (https://www.tensorflow.org/js/) page to get more info about this new technology.

To report bugs, please fill out the bug report form on the addon's homepage (https://mybrowseraddon.com/gesture-based-scroll.html).

nice, but after a period of time of using, the extension refresh itself and stop working anymore, doing nothing but scrolling up.

Didn't work for me. I tried over and over. This really needs a video to show how to train and use it...Like, do you move your hand while training or keep in one place? Really a great idea and hopefully will get vastly improved. I want to use my tongue movements, head movements and eye winks to control browser when this stuff gets better! I found a good extension until this one can handle stuff better: LipSurf .. uses voice commands like "down" to scroll down. It works really good except that it picks up tv and other people talking, which is why I want this extension to work good. Please keep working on this extension. It could be really Huge!!!!! I will check back.
