It is also found that it is widely used in the educational fields. If you are looking for a more regular method that will provide an interactive form easily happens to be gesture control. Using physical devices has always been a method widely used. Replica of human hand can made using different modes, operating schemas and different number of degrees of freedom. Few of the most significant models are studied and analyzed in order to provide more know about its working. To provide more ease of operation image input can be used. This input needs to be captured and processed in order to hand the system. Some of the gesture recognition method studied along with these robotics hands for future use. Keywords: Gesture, gesture replication, robotic hand INTRODUCTION Many modes of communication with robots are available. Some involve wired as well as wireless devices to communicate. Gesture communication is one way which has provided more natural way of controlling and provides a rich and intuitive form of interaction with the robotic system. Thus, communicating with gestures has been proved a powerful method. In the robotic industry efficiency, accessibility and accuracy of the system are must. These robots perform jobs that are harmful, repetitive, boring as well as stressful. Though robots can be a replacement to humans but they still need to be controlled by human itself. Human hand produces hand gesture which helps on providing commands to the robot. Robotic hand which is an electromechanical system can replicate these gestures easily. This gesture replication on robotic hand has a wide scope in industrial as well as educational fields. As far extracting gestures and reproducing the same is concerned, you should find a number of such systems. They not only capture the image, but also identify the specific gesture before generating the signals. LITEREATURE SURVEY Existing Systems Robotic hand being electromechanical system is one of the most complex design to generate, lot of enhancement has been done to generate and replicate human hand. Thus, in order to increase the functionality and resemblance to human hand, design of robotic hand is becoming complex from decades. Efforts have been put on to produce more functional &cost- efficient robotic hand. Following is a brief detailed study about few of the robotic hand system:  As far as the iHY robot hand is concerned, it has a shape of two fingers with a thumb hand with five fingers. As we are aiming for both durability as well as flexibility with heavy duty using the elastic joints is
