Software Requirements Specification (SRS) for

Virtual Calculator Project:

1. Introduction

1.1 Purpose:
This Software Requirements Specification (SRS) document provides a detailed outline of the
requirements for developing a virtual calculator application that utilizes hand gestures for
basic arithmetic operations. The application will combine computer vision techniques via
OpenCV and generative AI through GenAI, offering users an innovative, interactive way to
perform calculations using real-time gesture recognition. The aim is to enhance user
experience and accessibility by eliminating the need for traditional input devices like
keyboards or touchscreens.

1.2 Scope:
The virtual calculator project focuses on delivering a software solution that allows users to
execute fundamental arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and
division by interpreting hand gestures captured through a webcam. By employing OpenCV
for gesture detection and a Generative AI model for interpreting and solving math problems,
the application targets a wide range of users, from students to professionals seeking a hands-
free computing experience. This document will detail functional, non-functional, and
performance requirements for the project.

1.3 Definitions, Acronyms, and Abbreviations:


 OpenCV: Open-Source Computer Vision Library, a library used for real-time
computer vision tasks.
 GenAI: A Generative AI model that provides capabilities for understanding and
generating responses based on visual input.
 API: Application Programming Interface, a set of routines and protocols for building
software applications.

1.4 References:

2. Overall Description

2.1 Product Perspective:


The virtual calculator is designed as a standalone desktop application that leverages webcam
technology to capture hand gestures as input. The software operates independently on
systems running Windows, macOS, or Linux. The application will be built using Python
programming language, integrating libraries such as OpenCV for computer vision tasks,
cvzone for hand detection, and Streamlit for the graphical user interface (GUI).

2.2 Product Functions:


The main functions of the virtual calculator application include:
Gesture Detection: Capture and analyze hand gestures in real-time using the webcam.
Gesture Recognition: Recognize gestures drawing corresponding to numerical values (0-9)
and arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /).
AI Processing: Send recognized gestures to the Generative AI model for interpretation and
calculation.
Result Display: Show the calculated result in the GUI, updating it dynamically based on user
gestures.
Clear Canvas Functionality: Provide users the ability to clear their input and start a new
calculation.

2.3 User Classes and Characteristics:


- General Users: Individuals who may want to perform calculations hands-free, such as
students, professionals, or anyone looking for a more interactive way to engage with
mathematics.
- Developers and Researchers: Those interested in gesture-based computing applications may
use this project as a foundation for further research or product development.

2.4 Operating Environment:


The application will operate in a desktop environment and will be compatible with:
- Operating Systems: Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Hardware Requirements: A functional webcam capable of capturing video in at least 720p
resolution.
- Software Requirements: Python programming language installed on the system along with
the necessary libraries, including OpenCV, cvzone, and Streamlit.

2.5 Design and Implementation Constraints:


- The application requires a stable internet connection for accessing the Generative AI
services.
- The quality of the gesture recognition may vary based on lighting conditions and the
resolution of the webcam being used.
- The initial version will focus on basic arithmetic operations, with potential for expansion in
future versions.

2.6 Assumptions and Dependencies:


- Users are expected to perform gestures within a specific distance (about 1 to 2 meters) for
accurate detection.
- The application presumes that users have access to systems with appropriate hardware and
software configurations to support the required libraries.
