Title: Hand Gesture Controlled Robot using Arduino

---

1. Introduction

Robotics is one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing fields in


engineering. A Hand Gesture Controlled Robot is an innovative application
where the robot’s movement is controlled by recognizing the hand gestures
of the user. This project uses Arduino microcontroller as the brain of the
system, and a wireless communication module to transmit gestures to the
robot. The user wears a glove fitted with sensors or an accelerometer, and
specific gestures are translated into movement commands.

---

2. Objective

To design and implement a robot that can be controlled using human hand
gestures.

To eliminate the need for traditional joystick or remote control.

To demonstrate an efficient and user-friendly human–machine interface.


---

3. Working Principle

The project works by using an accelerometer (or flex sensors) mounted on


the user’s hand.

1. Gesture Detection:

The sensor measures tilt or bending and sends the data to the transmitter
Arduino.

2. Wireless Transmission:

Data is sent via RF module / Bluetooth / nRF24L01 to the receiver Arduino on


the robot.

3. Motor Control:

The Arduino processes the received signals and controls the motor driver
(L293D/L298N) to move the robot forward, backward, left, or right.

4. Components Required
Arduino UNO / Nano (2 units – transmitter & receiver)

Accelerometer (e.g., ADXL335 or MPU6050) or Flex Sensors

RF module (e.g., nRF24L01) / Bluetooth module (HC-05)

Motor driver IC (L293D or L298N)

DC motors with wheels

Robot chassis

Battery pack (Li-ion or Li-Po)

Jumper wires and connectors

Glove for mounting sensors

---

5. Advantages

Hands-free control (no remote needed)

Easy to operate for beginners and physically disabled persons


Low cost and customizable

Can be adapted for industrial and rescue applications

---

6. Applications

Military surveillance robots

Industrial automation

Assistance for physically challenged people

Remote exploration in hazardous environments

---

7. Conclusion

The Hand Gesture Controlled Robot is a cost-effective, innovative, and


interactive solution for controlling robots using natural human gestures. The
combination of Arduino, wireless communication, and sensor technology
makes it versatile for various real-world applications.
