Gesture Control Robotic Vehicle

Abstract

Robots plays a major role in all human activities like house maintenance, aerospace, factories, lifting of heavy equipment, etc.. It will also help to do the risky jobs which may not be able to done by humans such as detecting, mining etc., In the case of detecting, the explosives plays main role. Earlier, in the bomb detection there may be chance of human loss in the process. Gesture[1] is a most natural, expressive way of communication between Human and Computer in real system[1]. We naturally use various gestures to express our own intension in everyday life.  We formulated the relation between hand gestures and Accelerometer and designed a new way of communicating robot with hand gestures in different modes. Based on hand gestures the output is generated by the Arduino software. It is secure to use this system in Z category security and bomb squad security. In this project, a robotic vehicle which consists of sensors for detection purpose and accelerometer for gesture controlling and with the Arduino UNO. The Arduino is the main controlling element of the robotic vehicle. Embed the program into the Arduino kit for the required action. After dumping, run the program in the IDE Arduino software for gestures. The main objective of the project is to implement the robotic vehicle for metal detecting, bomb identifying, obstacle avoiding using simple gestures and reduction of human activities in dangerous environment of employing this robot for 100-200m range.
