Abstract

Present-day, the construction sector has been criticized for being reluctant to implement new technology, and labor productivity has remained stagnant. In order to make this construction grow fast as needed, it required new technology to replace human work to ensure the electrical construction grows faster, accurately, and safely. A robotic hand with hand gesture was introduced to easily control the electrical installation without human touch. Hand gesture recognition is an emerging field of technology in robotics and human interaction. An urge needs to create such a device that can substitute the human for doing works safely. Due to a wide range of applications, such as pick-and-placed, upper-limb prosthesis, and robotic hands development, robotic hands development has been a lot of interest in recent years. The objectives of this study are to develop a prototype robotic hand that hand gestures can control, create a mechanical hand finger, utilize a flex sensor and wireless communication and demonstrate how a prototype robotic hand works and how well it performs Mechanical hands are designed to mimic our agility and versatility in manipulating objects. Understanding the anatomy and motion of the human hand is also crucial for robot hand study. This is a detailed project overview for the robotic hand system. A human hand (user) has been declared on the left side, consisting of an ESP32 (user) using five flex sensors. Aside from that has been designated as a robotic hand that operates the ESP32 (mechanical design) using five servo motors that drive the robotic hand's fingers. The project's design is being developed as soon as all of the necessary information has been obtained. Microcontrollers (ESP 32), a motor, a flex sensor, and a glove were used in this project. A servo motor is the type of motor that we use. As the microcontroller with a built-in wireless connection or module, the ESP 32 was chosen. It includes everything you will need to connect the microcontroller to a computer or power it up, including a USB cord. In conclusion, an initial result in this research is expected to meet the objective of this studies and give significance to the researchers and users.
