Robotic Arm for Mimicking of Human Motion

Abstract

The advancement in technology and the research in the field of robotics, has led the development of robots with high precisions and stability. These advanced robots with high precision are been used in industries as well as households to ease the work of humans. The robots are made interactive as well as assistive to help people with disabilities. The gesture controlled robots assist people by performing tasks in extreme environments that are hazardous for humans. In our project we are going to design and develop an assistive robotic arm, which would perform the human skill of writing, by mimicking the human arm motion. This gesture controlled robot will help people with disability in writing due to crippled limb or post accidental surgery, making them not to be dependent on others. The robotic arm will be of 6-DOF (Degrees of Freedom) the arm should constructed with motor at the joint able do a bend action as same as the human hand. It can do difficult movements, such as seven different ways to move, making it useful for a multitasking and can also perform the day to day activities
