Robot Hand

Project Overview
As a personal initiative to explore the complexities of human hand biomechanics and robotic control systems, I designed and built a 20-degree-of-freedom robotic hand that mimics human hand movements through a glove-based control interface. This ongoing project represents the intersection of mechanical design, electronics, and control systems that drew me to mechatronics engineering.

Technical Features

20 degrees of freedom matching human hand articulation
Cable-driven actuation system using high-strength lines for precise finger control
Custom-designed 3D printed components optimized for mechanical strength and movement range
Wireless control system utilizing Bluetooth communication
Intuitive control through a sensor-equipped glove interface

Design & Development Process
The project has gone through multiple iterations, each addressing specific challenges:

Designed and optimized components for 3D printing, considering both structural integrity and functional requirements
Implemented a cable-driven system that allows for complex multi-joint movements
Developed electronics integration for servo control and wireless communication
Created a control system that translates glove sensor data into coordinated finger movements
