Browser-based hand gesture T9 keyboard (YOLOX and ONNX Runtime Web)

Runs everything in the browser and actually stays responsive — ONNX Runtime Web + a YOLOX model handle subtle hand-seal distinctions that MediaPipe struggled with. Clever choice to layer a T9 keypad over gesture input (reduces required class count and makes errors tolerable), but the demo remains an experiment: lighting sensitivity and similar seals create real UX friction and it’s not yet a drop-in input alternative.
