Gesture mimicking two Wheeler differential drive Arduino based robot and iRobot Create

Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 5

Abstract

Abstract: The project discussed here is a gesture controlled robot having two wheels on either side just like a car. The key features described in the project are i) controlling the movement of the wheels using an embedded system ii) using the concept of image processing hand gestures are analyzed and according to the gestures the robot moves. The embedded system used here is an Arduino Uno board. It is a microcontroller (Atmega328) based board having 14 digital pins (out of which some are PWM pins) and 6 analog pins. The Arduino have been programmed using JAVA. Two driving motors have been connected with each of the wheels and hence a motor driving circuit (IC no.-L293D) has been used. The gesture detection part has been done using PYTHON programming. The concept of image processing has been used for the detection. The PYTHON program and the Arduino program have been merged using serial import interface. The project is such that, first it will detect an object blue, green or red in colour and will bound it by a rectangle. By moving the detected object up, down, right or left, the robot will move forward, backward, right or left accordingly
