A simplified method in human to robot motion mapping schemes

Abstract

In this paper, a simplified method in human to robot motion mapping schemes is proposed and a prototype has been implemented. The proposed design contains two arms, a sample arm and a teach pendant robotic arm which will be taught to replicate the desired position. The camera starts the process by getting live images of the sample arm and sending it to the computer. After doing some calculations, the robotic arm moves to get the same shape as the sample arm. Two image processing techniques including Hough transform and color detection are used during the process. A comparison of the two methods and the advantages and disadvantages of each one is presented and evaluated using the implemented design.
