Implementation of a Wireless Gesture Controlled Robotic Arm

Abstract

In today's world, most of all sectors, the work is done by robots or robotic arm having different number of degree of freedoms (DOF's) as per the requirement. The idea is to change a perception of remote controls for actuating manually operated Robotic-Arm. Well, this paper presents a thought and a way to eradicate the buttons, joysticks and replace them with some of the more intuitive technique that is, controlling the complete Robotic Arm by the operators hand gesture. The proposed electronics system recognizes a particular hand gesture that will be performed in front of webcam & transmitted respected signals wirelessly through RF module. Depending on the received signals the robotic arm which is followed by AVR microcontroller performs the receptive motions at the receiver section.
