Development of Robotic Arm Through Hand Gesture Recognition Using Leap Motion Sensor

Abstract

The objective of this paper has been the development of a prototype of articulated Robotic arm and implementation of a control strategy for gesture recognition through (Leap motion sensor), by means the natural movement of the fore-arm and hand. The series of advances relative to the control techniques have caused that the robotics it has also introduced as an educational and complement in obligatory basic teachings. To develop and to control Robotic elements locally or remotely, it has always proven to be a clear example of additional motivation. The prototype developed has exceeded the initial expectations and at low cost.
