Gesture Present

Control slides with simple hand gestures using your webcam. No remotes, no keyboard - just stay in flow while presenting.

Why?

I was sitting across the table taking notes. I had to drop everything to change a slide. It was annoying. So I made this.

How and what?

Gesture Present detects your hand and changes slides when you rotate your hand left or right. That’s it.

It runs locally on your Windows machine, uses your webcam only in real time, and doesn’t record, store, or send anything anywhere. There are no accounts, no cloud services, and no setup beyond launching the app. It’s designed to stay out of the way and do one thing reliably.

Who is it for?

• People who care about privacy and don’t want camera data leaving your machine

• Students who set up their laptop at a distance and refuse to get up every 30 seconds (like me)
• Remote workers who want smoother, hands-free presentations.
• Anyone tired of paying $30+ for a clicker that does less.
• Salespeople who want to add a touch of wizardry to their demos.
• Teachers, professors who teach virtually.
• People who just want to aura farm. I see you.
