        abstract = {This paper presents a gesture-controlled image capture system developed using Python and computer vision techniques. The system detects predefined hand gestures from a live webcam stream to trigger hands-free image capture. Captured images are automatically uploaded to a designated Google Drive folder using the Google Drive API. A QR code containing the cloud folder link is generated to enable quick access and sharing without manual intervention. The approach enhances efficiency, hygiene, and usability in workflows where contactless operation is desirable. Experimental observations confirm that the system performs reliably in real-time scenarios. The presented solution can be applied in automation, documentation, and inspection environments requiring seamless cloud-based media management.},
