What you'll learn
The Gesture Hand System course is a practical robotics, electronics, embedded systems, and human-machine interaction program designed to teach learners how to develop a system that can recognize hand movements or gestures and translate them into controlled robotic hand movements.
The course covers flex sensors, servo motors, microcontrollers, accelerometers, wireless communication, gesture recognition, robotic hand mechanisms, and introductory AI/computer vision concepts. Learners gain hands-on experience in converting human hand movements into robotic actions.
