PROJECT REPORT PSOC BASED ROBOTIC ARM INTRODUCTION A DC motor is an electromechanical device which converts electrical signal into mechanical movements. The motors rotation has several direct relationships to these applied input pulses. The sequence of the applied pulses is directly related to the direction of motor shafts rotation. The speed of the motor shafts rotation is directly related to the frequency of the input pulses and the length of rotation is directly related to the number of input pulses applied. DC motor can be a good choice whenever controlled movement is required. They can be used to advantage in applications where you need to control rotation angle, speed, position and synchronism. Because of the inherent advantages, The project aims at the developing a robot arm which moves according to the rotation of the stepper which can be used in a wide variety of applications. Project supports the control of DC motor by using glove interpreter .The glove, used as hand covering and flex sensors will be attached on the glove which senses the hand movement. Flex sensors are sensors that change the resistance depending on the amount of bend on the sensor. It converts the change in bend to electrical resistance. They are usually in the form of a thin strip from1”- 5” long that vary in resistance. The resistance value of the sensor will be converted into voltage value by using voltage divider. PSoC 5 is a true system- level solution providing microcontroller unit (MCU), memory, analog, and digital peripheral functions in a single chip. In PSoC the component used are ADC and UART. Necessary program is done in the PSoC Creator. The Delta Sigma Analog to Digital Converter (ADC_DelSig) provides a low- power, low-noise front end for precision measurement applications. It is used in a wide range of applications, depending on resolution, sample rate, and operating mode. They can produce 16- bit audio; high speed and low resolution for communications processing; and high- precision 20-bit low-speed conversions for sensors such as strain gauges, thermocouples, and other high precision sensors. When processing audio information, the ADC_DelSig is used in a continuous operation mode. When used for scanning multiple sensors, the ADC_DelSig is used in one of the multi sample modes. When used for single-point high-resolution measurements, the ADC_DelSig is used in single-sample mode. The UART provides asynchronous communications commonly refered to as RS232 or RS485.The UART component can be configured for Full Duplex, Half Duplex, RX only, or TX only versions. All versions provide the same basic functionality. They differ only in the amount of resources used. To assist with processing of the UART receive and transmit data, independent size configurable buffers are provided.
