Project Summary

With technology advancing at an astronomical rate, we are witnessing events today that a few years ago were only conceptualized in movies. From humanoid robots to the famous Mars Rover, the possibilities are endless. Leap Motion is an example of ground breaking technology that has the potential to change the way we control machines and therefore, how we control our world! Leap Motion is a sensor that is currently used to navigate through a personal computer with just hand gestures. For our MQP, the group will use this technology to control a physical robot arm. For the second part of this project, the group used Solid Works to design a six-degree of freedom robot arm with five human-like fingers. The robot was designed to be controlled by Leap Motion, with human hand gestures as the input. It utilizes all of the sensor’s features, including the simultaneous control of all five fingers. The robot could be used for virtually any application, including research or service in the medical or military fields.

The present thesis deals with the design and testing of an appropriate software interface that allows a user to control a robot using a Leap Motion Sensor while defining and keeping a safe workspace for the robot to operate. The Leap Motion Sensor is a small device able to sense human hands above it and to keep track of them. Hence, when controlling the robot, the user will feel an interesting touch-free control experience. Distinct control modes, such as linear commandment, joint-by-joint control or specular imitation have been studied and implemented. The basis for a future teaching mode, where the robot could remember user actions and play them accordingly to fulfill a complex task has also been settled. At the same time, a precise definition of the workspace, creating a safe environment for both the robot and the user, and the contemplation on how to avoid undesired situations have been consciously considered.

Project Objectives

The objectives of this project are to:

1. To develop Leap Motion gesture controlled robotic arm hardware.

       2. To construct an algorithm using JavaScript to control the robotic arm.

       3. To integrate a Leap Motion controlled robotic arm structure for pick and place purpose.

       4. To analyze the accuracy and precision of the robotic arm and to improve its accuracy and        pick and place performance

Benefits of the Project

providing  awarness to the people that we can cotrol robots with out using romote control device.

by leapmotion we can control robot and robtic arm.

without toucing our hand to something we can move the robot by just moving our hand on the top of leapmotion in the air.

doctors can use that type of projects in surgerical operations.

militery can also used that type of projects in wars against there enemy and save human life.
