This project enables real-time control of a robotic hand using computer vision. It captures video from a webcam, detects hand landmarks using MediaPipe, calculates finger bending angles, and sends commands via serial to an Arduino to actuate 5 servo motors.
- Arduino Board (Uno)
- 5x Servo Motors (one for each finger)
- Webcam
- Power Supply (External 5V supply for servos)
- Jumper wires & Breadboard
| Finger | Arduino Pin |
|---|---|
| Thumb | Pin 13 |
| Index | Pin 12 |
| Middle | Pin 11 |
| Ring | Pin 10 |
| Pinky | Pin 9 |
Here is a wiring example showing two servos connected to an external power supply and an Arduino Uno. This setup should be replicated for all five servos.
Install the required dependencies:
