Introduction to the Robotic Hand Project
Building a gesture-controlled robotic hand is one of the most exciting and impressive projects you can undertake in electronics. Whether it is for a B.Tech major project, a prosthesis prototype, or just for fun, this tutorial will teach you how to map the movements of your own hand to a 3D-printed robotic hand using an Arduino and flexible bend sensors.
Components Needed
To follow along with this tutorial, you will need a few core components. You can grab all of these directly from our trusted hardware partner, KSP Electronics, with fast shipping across India!
- Spectra Symbol Flex Sensors (80mm) (You need 5 of these, one for each finger)
- Arduino UNO R3 (DIP Version)
- MG996R or SG90 Servo Motors (5 pieces)
- PLA PRO+ Daisy White Filament (For 3D printing the hand structure)
