README

✋ HOLO — Control Your Notes With Your Hands, In The Air

![HOLO — folder orbs and a real Smithsonian Apollo 11 scan floating over your webcam feed](assets/banner.png) *Your notes as floating orbs, a real Apollo 11 capsule scan on the shelf — all controlled by your hands in mid-air.*

Turn your webcam into an **Iron Man interface for your markdown notes**. Folders float as orbs over your own mirrored video. You pinch files out of the air, throw them with real momentum, crush a note between two hands and an AI voice reads you the gist.

Everything runs **on your machine**. No cloud, no API keys, no accounts, no sign-up. Camera frames never leave the page.

The hand tracking is Google MediaPipe (Apache-2.0), **self-hosted inside this repo** — so ad-blockers, CDN outages, and offline machines can't break it.

⚡ Install (one command)

git clone https://github.com/zubair-trabzada/holo-gestures.git ~/holo && cd ~/holo && python3 server.py

Then open **http://localhost:4890** in Chrome, allow the camera, and raise a hand. That's it.

Python 3 is the only requirement (standard library only — nothing to `pip install`).

Already installed? Update with:
cd ~/holo && git pull && python3 server.py

🖐 The gestures

Do this	Get this
Pinch a card	grab it, drag it, throw it with real momentum
Quick pinch (a tap)	an orb fans out its files · a note opens in the reader
Flick a note off-screen	it evaporates (reopen its orb to bring it back)
Two pinches, apart / together	zoom the whole scene · twist to rotate it
Two-hand stretch on a held card	pull big to read it · crush small for a spoken summary
Peace sign ✌ held	resets everything to its original place — a refresh without the refresh
Drag to the right edge	docks the card on the shelf
Press F	EFFECTS: palm-hold repulsor · palm→fist force-pull · point to draw ink · clap · two-palm tidy
