Abstract: Robots are devices that can perform tasks with or without human intervention, based on inputs from its environment. Gestures can be explained as symbolic actions performed by humans having a meaning. In this project, a robot toy car has been developed where the user uses these very gestures to interact with the robot car rather than the established and current technology of using remote controllers with buttons and joysticks, or mobile applications. These gestures are identified with the use of an accelerometer(ADXL345). The entire project is split into two parts: the transmitter circuit and the receiver circuit, where the former uses ADXL345 for gesture recognition, and the latter uses Motor driver (L293D) to move the toy car.
