Design and Implementation of Motion Imitation Robot

Abstract

As technology develops, robots are increasingly becoming a part of our daily life. Applications include those for rehabilitation, assisted living, education, domestic help, and warfare. All these applications require specific control strategies and controllers. To combat this, recently developed depth sensors resolve the issue relating to input response and latency issues with immediate response time. Our project presents a robotic system that can imitate human motions and work accordingly. while compared to other motion sensors, the Raspberry Pi camera makes the device more comfortable to use while collecting human movements. The gadget extracts the robot's skeletal data, which is then processed to create the robot's joint angles. The proposed design of the robot imitates the human in real-time with very little or no lag. The Raspberry Pi camera that we employ can monitor joint locations in order to create software application gesture detection and mapping into control instructions that the robotic system can display.
