Hi everyone,
I need to make a hand controlled robot. The robot must be able to move according to the movement of my fingers. How should I proceed and what parts do I need? Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.
You’ll need to make a data glove. This is obvious since you’re saying that the robot needs to move with your finger movement. You have to make a data glove with 5 flex sensors. Depending on how long your fingers are, you need to choose 2.2" or 4.5" flex sensors. The flex sensors will be connected to an arduino. The best option is to sew an Arduino Lilypad with your glove. Or you can attach an Arduino Uno. At the robot’s side, there must be another Arduino to receive data from the glove. You can use either blutooth or RF module at the robot’s side.
Here is an example of a flex sensor hand controller. This can be helpful for you: The Flexible Sensor Hand Controller - Share Project - PCBWay
