Description

ABSTRACT

This paper presents a wireless control algorithm for five HS-311 servo motors representing the five fingers of a human hand in the presence of a touch sensor.  The EEG brain signals processed in NI-Multisim are fed to the analog input A0 of a first Arduino Uno microcontroller, then converted by the ADC of this first Arduino Uno microcontroller. These EEG signals are transmitted to a second Arduino Uno microcontroller thanks to a Bluetooth wireless technology coordinated here by the Bluetooth HC-05 module playing the role of master and slave in this algorithm. This second microcontroller whose role here is slave allows to drive five HS-311 servomotors in action of opening of the human hand prosthesis when this one drops the object and of closing when a human hand prosthesis holds the object. The movements of the human hand prosthesis depend on the logic level of the push buttons, the touch sensor and the status of the light-emitting diodes.
