The technology of this 3D motion detector sensor made a great change in our projects. The world is now controlling electronic devices with the leapmotion controller.<br />The aim of this post is to show you how to control a servo motor and then leads it to control a robotic hand with the help of motion detector sensor using with arduino. In this post we will look couple of platforms that can get you to right and easiest way of control and use of 3D sensor technology.<br /><br />For getting started with it. First of all you should know about the Leap Motion technology. Its all about your hands detects in 3D frame.  It detects your hand, wrist, elbow and also worked for your shoulder while you are making an robotic arm with it. This motion sensor senses your waving hands and show it in 3D form. It tracks 200 frames per second with its cameras. it has ability to detects both hands, fingers and things look like fingers. From the hardware prospective the motion detector sensor is quite simple. It has consist of two cameras and three IR (Infra rays) leds that makes an area of detecting hand, wrist etc.<br />The charm of this Leapmotion technology increase when its join with real world hardware. These all can be done with the help of microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry pi etc.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_fkQL76pp6M/0.jpg" frameborder="0" height="266" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_fkQL76pp6M?feature=player_embedded" width="320"></iframe></div>                                                Link to video <a href="https://youtu.be/_fkQL76pp6M" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/_fkQL76pp6M</a><br /><br />For connecting hardware with leap motion sensor using arduino there will be two software used. The controlling purpose of 3d motion controller device we used Processing software. Processing is a open source computer programming language. Java based software in which we are programming in java language. It has collection of libraries that helps to control the commands of leap motion controller and then sends these all commands to arduino. Download the processing software and its libraries if you don't already have installed Click <b><a href="http://www.makeitmech.com/2017/06/how-Integrate-leapmotion-controller-with-arduino.html" target="_blank">processing software and library for leap motion and arduino</a> </b><br /><br />Here we are using Arduino as microcontroller to communicate Leap motion controller with hardware's like servomotor. The simply work is read data from leap in the form of you hand gestures in X, Y, Z axis and pass it to arduino for arduino basics<b><a href="http://www.makeitmech.com/2017/02/getting-started-with-arduino-micro.html" target="_blank"> getting-started-with-arduino </a></b>you dont't have to install any extra library in arduino software. There is builtin library in it.<br /><b><br /></b>For controlling servo motor with leapmotion and arduino we are using the y-axis of leap device to control the angles of servomotor. We are sending the commands via serial ports of processing to Arduino IDE.<br /><br />In processing you can used leap motion controller of any axis X, Y, Z but we are using x-axis to control our servo angles from 0 to 180 degree. This is seems something out of science fiction to make a movement of physical things by only gestures of your hands but we just made it in reality.<br /><br /><h4>Circuit Diagram</h4>Attach servo with pin # 9 to control it with Hand gesture recognition technology. Make sure that vcc is connected with 5volt and black wire of motor connected with Ground. After uploading the code which is given below it turns first 0 degree then tracks gestures on y-axis and changed its angles as per gestures changes. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipPkXiEMCHZgbSzNs-B7WDsgPyFh6NcwNwX_yuJVemHRoHdQcvjNnkOQ9Sw4PkPF_dXcklOMcHi1PyTI1RNl_ATg1SpUyH31ZQYyBUjFGRoQveublLiXuNUQQY_tl7nalzOqJ3WHE16VF3/s1600/leapmotion+with+servomotor+and+arduino.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="241" data-original-width="428" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipPkXiEMCHZgbSzNs-B7WDsgPyFh6NcwNwX_yuJVemHRoHdQcvjNnkOQ9Sw4PkPF_dXcklOMcHi1PyTI1RNl_ATg1SpUyH31ZQYyBUjFGRoQveublLiXuNUQQY_tl7nalzOqJ3WHE16VF3/s400/leapmotion+with+servomotor+and+arduino.PNG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><h3>Coding For Processing</h3><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiIYjio468g-isM-g3mzhaA-mfYd-vG9fjpPsn-hPT44iyVT5orksGQHPPpol2l9TOF9HW-CJp_AorkCBbc_PTgkknrbYtSqzVap01YFTn__RjfRE1K561rUuCD8L7Ma4W29tbMBOW_Ghc/s1600/leap.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="22" data-original-width="285" height="24" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiIYjio468g-isM-g3mzhaA-mfYd-vG9fjpPsn-hPT44iyVT5orksGQHPPpol2l9TOF9HW-CJp_AorkCBbc_PTgkknrbYtSqzVap01YFTn__RjfRE1K561rUuCD8L7Ma4W29tbMBOW_Ghc/s320/leap.PNG" width="320" /></a></div><br />Firs of all in the coding of processing import the library of <b>leapmotionp5</b>. Remember that the library given in my previous post is only best when you are using it for led blink function. Fro servomotor you have to add new library of motion sensor name leapmotionp5. This library can used for controlling servomotor. Here i am giving you link for downloading the library for servomotor <b><a href="https://github.com/mrzl/LeapMotionP5" target="_blank">LeapMotionP5 Library </a></b><br />Download this library and add it to the inside of processing folder libraries. Note that you can use only one library at a time so remove the previous library of named leapmotion for processing. For removing the previous library open you processing software click sketch then in drop down list click add library and remove the library of leapmotion for processing.<br /><br />Here  import com.onformative.leap.LeapMotionP5; is import all the functions of 3D technology sensor.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifrKv9iSPc3HYm783f6fRtPc6QHBNlfuABwUGSm6r5f_OrhypAGq3tLyMv0nRR3MnqqInFVl1DIYpQOGgCqCORIZFpsA7X2f-wZuc0jvY76FCg2ZWEnj75qAPjtTDxHvIr3Pk5o02E27GE/s1600/leapmotion.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="19" data-original-width="224" height="27" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifrKv9iSPc3HYm783f6fRtPc6QHBNlfuABwUGSm6r5f_OrhypAGq3tLyMv0nRR3MnqqInFVl1DIYpQOGgCqCORIZFpsA7X2f-wZuc0jvY76FCg2ZWEnj75qAPjtTDxHvIr3Pk5o02E27GE/s320/leapmotion.PNG" width="320" /></a></div><b> </b>Here import command of fingers. Leapmotion can detect all fingers, wrist angles, palm, pitch, yaw, roll and waving of hands these all the process that can be used for controlling servomotors with leapmotion controller with arduino. With the help of cameras motion detector sensor captures the images and process them to see which gesture is exactly move. It can only works if gestures moving in a limit. Limit of motion control sensor is form 1 inch to 2*2 feet.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6GGsudvMUwswXnxaLopfNerRGU7fXX4Hs6lkW3LLCka-_mFeNlB2ATUDJj_pdLZwr4oCfJgHKL32j9ODS0HwE-Hb4TfDHGvtz9HUv69tVIvIgBLm63As3y4HPh4eWgOwjPRGd0wOuFFIy/s1600/leapmotion.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="65" data-original-width="170" height="122" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6GGsudvMUwswXnxaLopfNerRGU7fXX4Hs6lkW3LLCka-_mFeNlB2ATUDJj_pdLZwr4oCfJgHKL32j9ODS0HwE-Hb4TfDHGvtz9HUv69tVIvIgBLm63As3y4HPh4eWgOwjPRGd0wOuFFIy/s320/leapmotion.PNG" width="320" /></a></div><br />Making a class of leap and making an integer of name angle which is used further for storing the angles of servo motor and sens it to arduino. import processing.serial.*; used to communicate the processing software commands and sends it to arduino via serial port.

As mention above when you run the program a new window open which is 720 height and width. This window is used for controlling position of servo with 3D hand recognition technology. If hands at above the 720 size the servo angle move to 180 degree. If the position of hand gestures are below the zero the angle turns to 0 degree. In between the windows the angle has formula of y-axis divide by 4. <br /><br /><h3>Coding For Arduino</h3>Controlling hardware with motion control technology needed a microcontroller which controls the hardware practically. Arduino has a simplest programming that's why we called it sketch. That's easiest way to control 3D motion controller device with real world hardware. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi34-_PXTUPlMH9YQbDrxnIH9FA1loFBauKCPNlRQ3U_e2_Hy0yOBG4D7_1b3T1H1Q6ljIdrcmFjNYSPefUP_wg8pStCbjqBmaM26j4NO6auhyphenhyphenkAuJi0_3_QVEFXXVVGriMZEXiu0PpRBYo/s1600/1.PNG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="39" data-original-width="149" height="83" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi34-_PXTUPlMH9YQbDrxnIH9FA1loFBauKCPNlRQ3U_e2_Hy0yOBG4D7_1b3T1H1Q6ljIdrcmFjNYSPefUP_wg8pStCbjqBmaM26j4NO6auhyphenhyphenkAuJi0_3_QVEFXXVVGriMZEXiu0PpRBYo/s320/1.PNG" width="320" /></a></div>First include servo library which is already builtin its software.

text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg66qmruo78cVqHZY21XBVML15-WZcJLAaGYD2Jja8tylj1AE4HmbtntUYozT0liQwRPfbpcXYOieGl0KstI2VOyBzeHrjtNMVJZw-ekD8ggSThxbRireyMizaskOp9ioV_VRfWt1zgXGE/s1600/A+New+Design+%252813%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

The advantages of these motors are constant magnetic field which<br />is uncontrolled by external source.<br /><h3><br />Line follower KIT:</h3>There are lots of LFR kits  are available in the market.buying a kit is the easiest solution for any mechanical work load or any sort of disturbance.<br /><br /><h4>Chassis:</h4>Chassis could be of any thing.I'm not going in the depth there are so many things already discussed over the internet.<br />The chassis could be of an acrylic sheet or use any home made things for robot base.<br /><h4>Wheels:</h4>There are standard size wheels are available in the market.if you are using KIT then youo don't need to worry about these things.<br /><h4>Ball caster:</h4>For making 2 wheel LFR you have to buy an extra wheel that is caster wheel the ball caster.For balancing the robot.<br /><br /><h3>Battery:</h3>Battery is the most important part in this project.we need a good and an efficient timing battery.dry lithium ion 12 volt rechargeable battery is the best choice.we can also go for other choices use simple rechargeable  two 4-volts batteries in series.<br /><br /><h3>Pin out Configuration and Assembling:</h3>Assemble all the parts.place evrything on your kit.and now wire up.<br /><br />Connect 3 IR modules with your arduino board.the vin pin of IR module will be connected on any of analog or digital pin of arduino remember these pin configurations you have to use in the code.so if you are connecting on analog pins then you have to write analog in the code.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvl_tkZ0lwO2jsMbeYclZLQo_Xd29TedLMmhsCI7c0VepbD7XMosNSsv9bUVrYYV07vfe4-bptW17K6QZ9xAg-rMQxZnQOQsQsnm2xzUV10h05NIuaQzJkxYppv1np14Dw4GBs1gXFAuI/s1600/A+New+Design+%252814%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="336" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvl_tkZ0lwO2jsMbeYclZLQo_Xd29TedLMmhsCI7c0VepbD7XMosNSsv9bUVrYYV07vfe4-bptW17K6QZ9xAg-rMQxZnQOQsQsnm2xzUV10h05NIuaQzJkxYppv1np14Dw4GBs1gXFAuI/s640/A+New+Design+%252814%2529.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><h3>Motor Driver:</h3>The motor drivr we are using here is L298N module. This is my recommendation to use this module instead of going for any shield or downloading libraries and other stuff this one is the simplest and easy.<br />For the working principle pin out configuration and why we are using this module you have to read this following post.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a

The result is that even a small error term will cause the integral component to increase slowly. The integral response will continually increase over time unless the error is zero, so the effect is to drive the Steady-State error to zero. Steady-State error is the final difference between the process variable and set point. A phenomenon called integral windup results when integral action saturates a controller without the controller driving the error signal toward zero</span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;">.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.2pt; mso-outline-level: 3;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><b><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12pt;">Derivative Response:<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><span style="background: white; font-family: inherit;"> </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 5.2pt; mso-outline-level: 3;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> The derivative component causes the output to decrease if the process variable is increasing rapidly.

Increasing the<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>derivative time (T_d)<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>parameter will cause the control system to react more strongly to changes in the error term and will increase the speed of the overall control system response.
