Design of a low-cost teleoperated robotic arm: Assembly and performance testing

Abstract

At present, robots are widely used in various tasks, whether for industrial or even domestic uses. Thus, for certain tasks it has become necessary to operate the robot in an intuitive and safe way. The vast majority of current robotic hands do not completely replace the functionality of a hand and can not be used in environments which are designed for the use of a human hand. Thus, this document shows the design of a hybrid system with robotic hand and prosthesis applications. The design of a biomechanically controlled, functional and anthropomorphic robotic arm is shown, which demonstrates that it is feasible to design a real-time, low-cost, robotic arm.
