3. Abstract
• Gesture Controlled Car is a robot which can be controlled by simple human
gestures. The user just needs to wear a gesture device in which a sensor is
included.
• The robot and the Gesture instrument are connected wirelessly through radio
waves.We can control the car using accelerometer sensors connected to a
hand glove.
• It will allow user to control the forward, backward, leftward and rightward
movements, while using the same accelerometer sensor to control the
throttle of the car.
• The main advantage of this mechanism is the car with this mechanism can
take sharp turn without any difficulty.
4. Introduction:
• Nowadays, robotics are becoming one of the most advanced in the field of
technology.
• Some of the most commonly used control systems are voice recognition,
tactile or touch controlled and Gesture controlled.
• A Gesture Controlled robot is a kind of robot which can be controlled by your
hand gestures not by old buttons.You just need to wear a small transmitting
device in your hand.
• Some robots require some degree of guidance, which may be done using a
remote
• control or with a computer interface
• The main goal of this project is to control the movement of the robot with
hand gesture using accelerometer.The robot is usually an electro-mechanical
machine that can perform tasks automatically.
5. • But, controlling the robot with a remote or a switch is quite complicated. So, a
new project is developed that is, an accelerometer based gesture control
robot.
• The Wireless Hand controlled Robot will function by a wearable hand glove
from which the movements of the hand can be used as the input for the
movement of the robot.
• The basic idea of our project is to develop a system (Robot) which can
recognize the Human Interaction with it to accomplish the certain tasks
assigned to it.
• In our project we will design a wearable Hand Glove which will contain the
sensors mounted on it to capture the movement of the hand and convert the
raw mechanical data into electrical form.
• The aim of the project is to develop a human machine interface used for
control robot arm. Our objective is to make this device simple as well as
cheap so it can be produced and used for number of purposes.
6. Scope and Applications:
• Wireless controlled robots are very useful in many applications like remote
surveillance, military etc.
• Hand gesture controlled robot can be used by physically challenged in
wheelchairs.
• Hand gesture controlled industrial grade robotic arms can be developed.
• Entertainment applications – Most videogames today are played either on
game consoles, arcade units or PCs, and all require a combination of input
devices. Gesture recognition can be used to truly immerse a players in the
game world like never before.
• Automation systems – In homes, offices, transport vehicles and more,
gesture recognition can be incorporated to greatly increase usability and
reduce the resources necessary to create primary or secondary input
systems like remote controls, car entertainment systems with buttons or
similar.
7. • An easier life for the disabled – One of the biggest
challenges faced today is providing separate and equally
non cumbersome services to the differently abled and
handicapped. While there are special provisions around
the world, there’s still huge room for improvement to bring
all lives on equal footing. Gesture recognition technology
can eliminate a lot of manual labor and make life much
easier for those who aren’t as fortunate as most of us are.
8. Methodology:
• Components used in Project:
Transmitter Components:
ARDUINO UNO:
Arduino UNO is a low-cost, flexible,
and easy-to-use programmable open-
source microcontroller board that can
be integrated into a variety of
electronic projects. This board can be
interfaced with other Arduino boards,
Arduino shields, Raspberry Pi boards
and can control relays, LEDs, servos,
and motors as an output.
9. DC 12v Motors:
• 2x DC 12v Motors;
12 volt DC motor is a rotary
motor which can convert the
direct current into mechanical
energy or convert mechanical
energy into DC power. It mean
that the 12 volt DC motor can interconvert electric energy
and mechanical energy. When it is operated as a DC motor,
electric energy is converted into mechanical energy.
10. L293D Motor Driver:
• L293D is a typical Motor
driver or Motor Driver IC
which allows DC motor to
drive on either direction.
L293D is a 16-pin IC which
can control a set of two
DC motors simultaneously
in any direction. It means
that you can control two
DC motor with a single
L293D IC.
11. NRF24L01:
• NRF24L01 is basically a
wireless transceiver, which is used to send and
receive data by using radio waves. It is a single
chip transceiver module. It uses
SPI protocol for transmitting data.
Its data transmission speed is
up to 2Mbps. NRF24L01 is normally used in industrial
devices and projects for data transmission. It is
mostly used in computer, toys, remote control,
games, and other electronic devices.
12. Arduino Nano:
• The Arduino Nano is a small, complete, and
breadboard-friendly
board based on the
ATmega328 . It has more or
less the same functionality of
the Arduino Duemilanove, but
in a different package. It lacks only a DC power jack,
and works with a Mini-B USB cable instead of a
standard one.
13. MPU-6050:
• MPU6050 is a Micro
Electro-mechanical system
(MEMS), it consists of
three-axis accelerometer
and three-axis gyroscope.
It helps us to measure
velocity, orientation,
acceleration, displacement
and other motion like
features.
14. Literature Review:
• The research for gesture control started in the late 1980s.
Inventions of special hand gloves and voice control on a large
screen gave rise to the fundamentals of the gesture recognition
system. Later, automotive applications were the first gesture
recognition system created for better user interface.
• In 1986 a Canadian Vincent John Vincent firstly invented Gesture
controlled.
• In the early 2000s, the gaming industry was booming, giving birth
to touchless technology – famously known as the game controller
device.
• GestPoint technology in 1996 is a camera-enabled video tracking
software system that translates hand and body movement into
computer control.
15. • The system enables users to navigate and control interactive
multi-media and menu-based content, engage in virtual reality
game play, experience immersion in an augmented reality
environment or interact with a consumer device
• In 2004, the introduction of the first fluid two-handed interaction
input device based on vision enhanced PCs and Laptops
experience.
• In 2011, research on mobile touch-screen gesture designs was
published, leading to an industrial.
• Later in 2015 BMW 7 series, firstly introduced a gesture
recognition system for automotive industry. Which can recognize
hand gestures that control music/ audio and recieve incoming
calls.
16. Conclusion:
• The purpose of project is to control a toy car using accelerometer
sensors attached to a hand glove. The sensors are intended to
replace the remote control that is generally used to run the car.
• It will allow us to control the movements, while using the same
accelerometer sensor to control the throttle of the car based on
the hand movements.
• Hand Gesture Controlled Robot System gives a more natural way
of controlling devices.
17. Future Recommendation:
• The future holds significant aspects for the education field,
enhancing classroom participation and interaction.
• Medical Field.
• This system can also be employed in medical field where
miniature robot are created that can help doctors for efficient
surgery operations.
• Entertainment Applications.
• Automotive Industry.
