Abstract
Today, robots have become ubiquitous, not just in various industrial sectors but in all walks of life as they minimise human effort and maximise the output and increase the efficiency of work. One such class of robots that is widely used is Robotic Arms. Initially, Robotic Arms were designed to automate pick and place operations but today they have evolved and can perform much more complex tasks like surgeries, agriculture, manufacturing, food processing and prosthetics etc. Despite extensive use of robotic arms in the industry there still remains huge scope for use of robotic arms in household, domestic, and small-scale industrial applications, if they become more ergonomic and easier to be used by a layman. Therefore, this project aims to simplify the use of robotic arms to an extent that even a non-technical person who has no knowledge about robots, can control the robotic arm using hand gestures. Gesture control provides an unprecedented level of accuracy and precision when compared to a keyboard, mouse or joystick in an intuitive. A gesture-controlled robotic arm can completely revolutionise the market for Robots.
