Abstract
In this paper, the author has developed a system of wirelessly controlling remote units using hand gesture and Internet. A lot of research has already made communication between silent people and the general audience using flex sensor. Here, we will control remote devices with different hand gestures depending upon the measured flexity of the flex sensor. Using IoT, anything across the globe can be monitored and controlled from any place. The microcontrollers used as well as the remote units that are being controlled are connected to Internet either via LAN or Wi-fi module. This system will help those who generally forget small things such as switching the power off when not in use!
