Entry for day 5! Built it using the OpenSky Network API with Claude Sonnet 4.5 in Goose CLI. Uses MediaPipe in the browser to detect hand open/close gestures. Deployed to Vercel with the Vercel MCP tool we learnt about the other day! 👀 Can try here: https://festive-flight-tracker.vercel.app/ https://bsky.app/profile/j4ck.xyz/post/3m7bhixmp6s2k

Final project is at https://flightboard.nickyt.co . Read my post about day 5, Advent of AI 2025 - Day 5: I Built a Touchless Flight Tracker You Control With Hand Gestures.
Past Progress: Will edit this as I make progress. I went with TanStack Start for framework. Here's the folder in the repo https://github.com/nickytonline/advent-of-ai-2025/tree/main/day-5. So far hand detection working. I'm using Tensorflow.js atm as I ran into issues in browser at least with MediaPipe. Outside the browser, MediaPipe appears to be working. CleanShot.2025-12-06.at.01.14.25_compressed.mp4Got MediaPipe working finally and now gesture dection works. CleanShot.2025-12-06.at.02.04.17_compressed.mp4I also added the ability to pick your camera if you have more than one.
Multi-hand gesture detection as well as thumbs up detection CleanShot.2025-12-06.at.10.52.58_compressed.mp4OK flight list navigation with hand gestures is working CleanShot.2025-12-06.at.11.29.48_compressed.mp4Getting fancy. Thumbs up to show the flight info in a dialog and thumbs down to close the dialog. CleanShot.2025-12-06.at.12.55.17.mp4 |

https://ai-media-pie-flight-tracker.vercel.app/ My Winter Flight Tracker. OMG we are here as in the future. lol Let me contain my excitement. So I designed my Winter Flight Tracker. My UI features a winter-themed design with a teal and glow aesthetic, animated snowfall, glowing icons. The gesture-controlled interface displays real flight data from live APIs. This showing actual flights with departure times, airlines, prices, and an interactive map with glowing teal flight paths. Now for the star of the show MEDIAPIPE! I absolutely adore this. All I thought was this can help million with disabilities. It seems to be an accessibility type technology. It so futuristic and magical. Yes this absolutely is modern AI engineering that combines ML models with real-world data. It created a magical experience for me. I thought of the movie Minority Report as well when first saw Media Pipe in action. I ran out of token so fast with this because I had to change the hand gestures to peace sign, and pointer, goose designed with fist, palm, and thumb. Also the UI because I love the design aspect. *For the more elaborate projects and to make it to ultimate (which I was able to do some), perhaps we can be allotted more tokens.

This challenge was a lot of fun and showcased a very interesting way of interacting with a website. I really enjoyed exploring gesture-based controls and integrating them with live data. |

That was fun! Took quite some iterations to get the hand gestures to work for scrolling the list, selecting, zooming in/out on the map, but it finally worked. Awesome. |
