Tokyo University engineer Tsuyoshi Horo has developed a novel system for controlling robots (or in this case, a moving stool) using a simple set of hand and body gestures. The researcher is ...

The bot is controlled by the user's gestures using a hacked Kinect controller and turned into robotic movement of the Arduino controlled claw. The claw uses servos to move it around.

With the Arduino-based open source project looking for crowd-funding on the Kickstarter website, the AI robot kit has an integrated HD camera and ultrasonic sensor to allow it to recognise and track ...

Instructables user TannerTech has used a little Arduino technology to add gesture controls to his rolling backpack enabling the device to be manoeuvred in a much more elegant way.

[Saddam] must have wanted the same effect, so he created a robot that he controls over wireless using hand gestures. An accelerometer reads hand motions and sends them via an RF module to an Arduino.

Arduino enthusiasts may be interested in a new gesture controlled Arduino door lock which has been created by Adham Negm and uses an Arduino Uno together with a servo motor to slide the bolt back ...

French designer Paul Ferragut has built a robot that throws a bunch of dots on canvas and calls it art. (That’s also known as the entire career of Georges Seurat.) The Arduino-controlled Time ...

Philipp Robbel, a student at MIT’s Personal Robotics Group, has used a hacked Xbox Kinect camera and an iRobot Create kit to make a Roomba-esque KinectBot that can recognize human beings and ...
