The gesture control robotic hand was my mini project in college. The robotic hand copies or mimic the gesture which my controlling arm does. It's a simple project which anyone can replicate with simple knowledge in electronics and basic programming.
Components- Arudino Uno
- Flex sensor (2.2") x5
- Servo motor x5
- 9v 1A adapter
- Robotic hand (can be bought online or me 3d printed
Two hand were made for this project. One for testing and one for final implementation. The wooden was hand crafted which was used for testing. After testing the wooden hand, the joint resistance was high so for that we ordered an robotic hand made of plastic.
CircuitEach finger is controlled with help of individual servo motor. Servo motor gets it's signal from Arduino which determines the position of the motor. Flex sensor is used as input to the Arduino which gives the position of the bend finger the user does. The flex sensor are mounted on the gloves which user can wear.
