The code uses mediapipe library to detect hand landmark positions and handedness. If the frame detects one hand, it finds out if its a left hand or right hand and triggers the brightness contreol and volume control function respectively. If the current frame contains both hands, both volume and brightness control functions are triggered simultaneously in different threads.
