Abstract

A prosthetic is a contrived machine of human anatomy that substitutes an off-track torso portion, which helps in regaining functionality. The fundamental purpose of this paper is to design a low-priced robotic limb that offers the basic functionality of a human hand. Mainly, it deals with controlling servo motors, and it is extended to build a prosthetic arm. Servo motors assist in response to arbitrate the locus of the stab. As an outcome, servo motors are utilized to regulate the locus of the items with high precision and are controlled by a signal known as the pulse-width modulator. Hence, the control of the servo motor is made possible by connecting the PWM input to the individual of the Arduino’s digital yield pins. Myoware muscle sensors are used in the limb, which will determine the resolved electrical action of power output in volts. This output of the muscle sensor is given to Arduino to regulate the position of the servo motor, resulting in the control of the fingers of an arm. These arms are used majorly in warfare in countries that lost their arms during battles and for persons who met with major road accidents. This arm can be further controlled from different places by using a wireless RF transceiver.
