    Real-time control of robot arm based on hand tracking using leap motion sensing technology
    (University of Management and Technology, 2017) Saad Shafiq, Muhammad; Rana, Nawal; Arham, Ali; Abbas, Ghazanfar
    Leap Motion sensor is ubiquitously manufactured by an American organization which usually runs by the name of Leap Motion, INC. It is an external computer hardware sensor that pragmatically operates via hand and fingers gestures as input. Unlike a mouse, it requires no physical contact. The production company is known to generate innovative software in 2016, which was peculiarly assembled for arm tracking via virtual reality. The Leap motion sensor is a type of proximity sensor that visualizes hand and its every minuscule joint movement. As per acknowledgment we have proposed an idea of using the Leap Motion sensor in an enhanced way to manipulate a robot arm. The plan here is to make robotic arm mimic the motion of the user’s hand as, Leap motion takes motion as input and sends an output to the robotic arm to be visualized. Moreover, in order to achieve our desired state we have designed a pragmatic and enhanced wooden robotic arm to assist us to accomplish our requirements.
