Wireless gesture controlled Semi-Humanoid Robot

摘要

Robotics is a field concerned with the “intelligent connection of perception of action”. The most common manufacturing robot is the robotic arm with different degree of freedom. Today, these humanoids perform many functions to assist humans in different undertakings such as space missions, driving and monitoring high speed vehicles. They are called Humanoids because they resemble humans. The idea of this paper is to change perception of controlling robotic arm. This paper provides a way to get rid of old fashioned remote controls and gives an intuitive technique for implementation of Semi- Humanoid Gesture controlled robot. The motion sensors used are - flex and accelerometer (used in mobile phones for tilting motion). It includes two robotic arms which are exactly similar to human arms (with 5 fingers), increasing sensitivity of the system, a moving platform and a camera for capturing real time video. The prime aim of the system is to design a system in such a way that user can operate the robot with the ease through gestures. This involves movement of both robotic arms and platform in synchronous with user's hand and leg gestures respectively.
