Remote Hand

Inspiration

The idea of this project comes from the movie "Real Steel", in which the boxer can remotely control a robot to do the same movement.

What it does

The IMU sensors track the finger movement and the board then controls the servo motors to move the robotic fingers do the exact same movement. Upon touching things with the robotic hand, the hall effect sensor gives analog data about how much the finger is touching the object and gives haptic feedback to the human finger.

How we built it

Designed the PCBA board, integrated with the Haptic Motor, hall effect sensor, IMU sensor and servo motor

Challenges we ran into

Trouble with allocating proper memory for the FreeRTOs Task.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Cooperate the hall effect sensor with the haptic motor.

What we learned

Details about designing and making PCBA boards. Firmware Driver for motors and sensors.

What's next for Remote Hand

expand to all five fingers, more smooth hand movement and control
