Where to Go From Here?
The aim of this tutorial was to serve as a template for you to make more applications by harnessing the power a Computer Vision library like OpenCV and a game engine as versatile as Unity.
There are several things you can do at this point, such as send different values depending on the number of fingers detected by OpenCV to perform different operations in your Unity project.

In addition to performing Hand Gesture Recognition, there are many more things that you can do with the OpenCV such as Object Detection, Face Recognition, Template Matching, SLAM Detection, create your own self-driving car, making Augmented Reality Applications and much more!
