Lynxmotion arm control by using p5 data glove

Lynxmotion Electronics & Software

Dear expert people,
I have a p5 data glove and a lynxmotion lynx 6 arm. I am using SSC-32 controller and can manipulate the arm through RIOS. And I just installed p5 data gloves by which I can move mouse cursor and can do some simple operation.
Now I want to control lynxmotion arm by using p5 data gloves. I think it is possible, isnt it?
I have a little idea about visual c++ and VC6 is installed in my pc. Is there any source code for this?
Please also let me know if I could use lynx6 arm by p5 without using any programming.

Thanks in advance.
waiting for your response.

Here is a project to use the P5Glove to control a Lynxmotion Robot Arm.

Hello,

I used this program (robot_glove_original) from the above link to run Lynx L6 arm.

I installed java and java comm api in my windows NT system, and used eclipse to run the program.

First the arm was not responding, then i changed the baud rate 9600 to 115200 inside the program. I works, but the problem is the arm is moving too fast. When i switch on the p5 glove the arm goes to one end and stops there.

I am not sure whether there is a problem in baud rate or not.

Any kind of suggestions will be appreciated.
Thank You

Finally I am able to control the arm through p5 glove. Still i have not finished the project though.

I contacted with the author, he is very helpful.
