Sorry for the vague subject, but I am not quite sure how to ask the question. I am looking for a sensor that could be placed on my right arm like a watch which would move a robotic arm as i move my righ arm. i.e follow my arm Can anyone suggest a sensor that could be used?
Accelerometers can be used to meassure your movements. Additionaly because we are in an accelerating environment aka the earth gravitational field you will always know where ground is.
This has been done. Just Google/Youtube "control robotic arm with hand gesture"
