Robotic Arm Control via Hand Movements

Abstract

The paper presents the construction of a robotic arm controlled using basic human hand movements. The glove assembly contains three flexible sensors and two accelerometers on the transceiver side. The glove contains an Arduino N ano to control the stepper motor and six servo-motors, and the robotic arm contains an Arduino Uno, six servo-motors and a stepper motor. The glove has three 3D-printed fingers. Each finger has three degrees of freedom and is controlled by a human hand. The hand-controlled robotic arm can be useful in various industries such as medical, chemical and military.
