Design control system using gesture control on the Arduino-based robot warfare

Abstract

Abstract The development of increasingly advanced technology provides a positive side in various fields, especially the military. This research introduces a different control system in the navigation of robots, especially in the military field. Navigation system used are varied, ranging from robots that are driven using cables to wireless communications that are used to move robots. Various control systems on robots using RC (Remote Control), android, and several electronic devices designed for navigation systems such as joysticks and other control system devices. Researchers designed gesture control on the Arduino nano v3 based and Arduino ATMEGA based combat robots on military equipment, because there is no military equipment that uses a gesture control navigation system. Researchers used an experiment method with an Arduino electronic device as a microcontroller, accelerometer module and MPU6050 gyroscope as a sensor that serves to determine the orientation of motion, NRF24L01 module as telemetry, and engine as drive. The results obtained after designing a gesture control navigation system on a combat robot are very good because it is very easy to operate the robot, and a long duration because using the engine. It was concluded that gesture control was appropriate and safe for use in the military.
