Present disclosure relates to a system for detecting hand gesture and a method thereof. The system comprises a hand-held controller and a computing application. The hand-held controller includes a plurality of finger detectors. The finger detectors are configured to obtain finger positions. The computing application, executed by a processor, is configured to retrieve a spatial vector of the hand-held controller. The computing application is also configured to retrieve the finger positions from the hand-held controller. The spatial vector of the hand-held controller and the finger positions are provided to illustrate a simulated hand gesture.
