Gesture Controlled Prosthetic Arm

摘要

This objective with design and implementation of an accelerometer based hand gesture controlled robot which is controlled wirelessly using a small low cost, 3- axis accelerometer. A novel algorithm for gesture identification has been developed to replace the approach of conventional controlling mechanism of Robots via buttons by an innovative hand gesture. In order to increase the use of robot in places where conditions are not certain like rescue operations, robots can be made to follow the instructions of human operator and perform the task accordingly.
