Abstract:
Unlike pre-programmed controlling, real-time control of a 6-DOF manipulator is a complex task which involves physical interaction with a traditional manual controller clustered with numerous joysticks. This take lot of joystick movements in order to bring the robotic arm to a position followed by an action with the end-effector. Using the latest technology in human computer interaction, i.e. Leap Motion, we can reduce the complexity of this task to minimum effort by making the robotic arm mimic human hand in real time.
