Gesture Controlled Robotic Arm

Abstract

In many applications of controlling robotic gadget it becomes quite hard and complicated when there comes the part of controlling it with remote or many different switches. Mostly in military application, industrial robotics, construction vehicle in civil engineering side, medical application for surgery. Sometimes the operator may get confused in the switches and buttons itself, so as a new concept is introduced to control the machine with the movement of hand which will simultaneously control the movement of robot. In my project I am using this concept to control the robot through the movements of our hands and also the movement of our 'fingers'. I have combined the two robot types that is a robot car and a robotic arm to make one single multipurpose robot. My project is a concept introducing robot and its uses. By making more advancement in it i.e. by changing the end effector it can be used in military appliances like bomb diffusing robot. The sensors can also be used to make wheel chair for patients who can't walk.
