Gesture Globe running in a browser: a satellite Earth over the Americas with country and capital labels

A 3D globe you control with hand gestures. Your webcam reads your hands, and the Earth turns and comes closer with them.

Benny built it in July 2026 for a live demo, on a machine that was not his own, so it runs in any browser with a webcam.

It is a big first load, so give it a moment. The hand controls need camera access.
