Abstract
In this paper, a model of a robotic arm is designed and manufactured using a 3D printer, which is to be operated via human gesture by using the Accelerometer and Gyroscope Module. This arm is proposed to help in the medical field, in military operations, in hazardous conditions and in industries to maximize human safety. The robot arm is designed such that, it has 5 degrees of freedom controlled by the 3-axis accelerometer mounted on the IC placed on the glove of the user. The module will replicate the movement of the user's hand to extend, retract, and rotate accordingly to accurately position as required for the application. The user's finger action is used to manipulate the working of the gripper. Therefore, gesture control in a broad sense is a computerized interface that allows computers to record and interpret those gestures into commands to adhere to actions.
