Gesture Control Robot Using Accelerometer

In this paper, we are introducing a robot with a gesture controlled 3-axis accelerometer (ADXL335) with an ATmega16 microcontroller. Gesture recognition is a topic which comes under the purview of the computer science, Electronics & Communication and language technologies field for the purpose of interpreting human gestures with the help of mathematical algorithms. The gestures can be interpreted from any kind of physical movement or condition, but usually arise from a person. Gesture recognition can be explained as a method by which a computer can understand the language of the human body, thereby creating a communication bridge between humans and machines than normal text based or a terminal user interfaces or even graphical user interfaces (GUIs) that still restrict most of the mouse and keyboard inputs.
