This was a hobby project done for emulating mouse control using hand gestures. Please have a look at the link for seeing the project in action
The motivation was to create a more seamless user experience for the human-computer interaction.
The hand gestures were picked up by the MPU6050 IC which is a three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope Micro Electro-mechanical system (MEMS).
Wrote and optimized firmware which provides spin capability for the robot.
Learnt PCB Designing and optimized design of control board using EasyEDA and KiCad
Debugging issues of the robot
Worked on a feedback loop system using IR sensor for the robot.
Worked on system to detect bounce using piezo-electric sensors.
Learnt about improvements in designing the product and optimization of embedded software.
