Implementation of a hand gesture controlled Rover: A wireless approach to intuitive navigation and directional control

The Hand Gesture Controlled Rover is a novel robot that allows for natural control of operation using hand gestures. This system uses an accelerometer to sense hand motion and send commands wirelessly to a Rover using an RF module. The Rover has motors driven by a motor driver, which allows for bi-directional motion, speed, and rotation. The robot will respond to several gestures, show forward, backward, left, right, and stop, allowing operation without physically touching a controller. The system also includes collision detection and allows the Rover to go backwards or change direction after a collision, making for smooth operation in a dynamic environment. This method combines motion sensing, wireless, and motor control for a flexible, intuitive system for operating a robotic system remotely. The design and performance of the hand gesture controlled Rover indicates potential uses in educational settings, assistive technology, and interactive robotics.
