Hand Gesture Controlled Robot Arm

Robotic Arms are generally a programmable type of mechanical arm with functions similar to human arm which is either the sum of total mechanism or may be a complex robot part. These robotic arms are employed in assembly line of industries performing complex process like drilling, painting and painting etc. It is possible to fabricate gesture controlled Industrial robot arms. The robot is easily accessible and requires lesser controlling effects. In this work a glove attached to human hand is incorporated with flex sensors and transceiver. The flex sensor resistance can be varied by hand movement which is transferred to the axis of robot. The resistance of glove can make robot rotate either angular or in a linear motion about its axis. A transceiver circuit is employed for signal control which is capable of transmitting and receiving signal between human hand and robotic arm.The flex sensor senses and gives corresponding signals. The analog signal from the flex sensor given to Arduino, it will work according to the Arduino program. The signal is transmitted from Arduino to Zigbee for wireless communication. The driver circuit put together with transistor to control the relay. The re
