Our project is a robot hand that looks similar to the human hand, we used wood for the main part of the hand and we combined the wooden parts together using metallic hinges. The hand is controlled by a glove that can be worn by the user, the glove has flex sensors attached to it and these sensors detect the movement of the user's hands and send it to the wooden hand. The glove and the hand communicate with each other wirelessly via RF 433 MHz module.
On the side of the mechanical hand, we used Arduino UNO microcontroller that controls servo motors connected to the fingers of the hand. Regarding the glove side, we used Ardunio NANO microcontroller which detects the movement of the users hand and sends it wirelessly to the mechanical hand.
