This paper introduces GECO, a real-time, computer vision-assisted gesture controller for IoT-based smart home systems. The platform uses a markerless MediaPipe interface that combines gesture-driven navigation and command execution, enabling intuitive control of multiple domestic devices. The system integrates binary and analog gestures, such as continuous light dimming based on thumb-index angles, while operating on-device through a private MQTT network. Technical evaluations across multiple Android devices have demonstrated ultra-low latency times (<50 ms), enabling real-time responsiveness. A user experience study with seventeen participants reported high intuitiveness (9.5/10), gesture accuracy (9.2/10), and perceived inclusivity, mainly for individuals with speech impairments and low technological literacy. These results position GECO as a lightweight, accessible, and privacy-preserving interaction framework, advancing the integration of artificial intelligence and IoT within smart home environments.
