Wireless Gesture Control Robot: An Analysis

Abstract: Today human-machine interaction is moving away from mouse and pen and is becoming pervasive and much more compatible with the physical world. With each passing day the gap between machines and humans is being reduced with the introduction of new technologies to ease the standard of living. Gestures have played a vital role in diminishing this abyss. In this paper, a rigorous analysis of different techniques of “Human-Machine Interaction” using gestures has been presented. Gestures can be captured with the help of an accelerometer, however, with the evolution of smartphone its independent usage has been rendered useless. This paper analyzes the motion technology to capture gestures through an android smartphone with an inbuilt accelerometer and a Bluetooth module to control the kinetics of a robot.
