Hand Gestures Controlled Car

I designed and implemented a Gesture-Controlled Car System aimed at assisting people with disabilities by enabling vehicle control through simple hand gestures.

The system uses a wearable glove equipped with an accelerometer to detect small hand movements. These movements are processed by an Arduino Pro Mini and transmitted wirelessly via an RF transceiver to control a remote vehicle in real time. This project demonstrates the practical use of embedded systems, wireless communication, and assistive technology.

✅ What I Built

• Hand-gesture sensing glove

• Wireless RF communication system

• Remote-controlled vehicle platform

• Motor control using L298N driver

• Obstacle detection using an ultrasonic sensor

✅ System Overview

• The accelerometer mounted on the glove detects hand tilt and movement

• The Arduino Pro Mini processes gesture data

• Commands are transmitted wirelessly using an RF transceiver

• The receiver module on the car interprets the commands

• DC motors are controlled via an L298N motor driver

• An ultrasonic sensor provides basic obstacle detection for safety

✅ Key Features

• Real-time hand gesture control

• Wireless RF communication

• Smooth motor movement and direction control

• Compact and low-power embedded design

• Designed for assistive and accessibility applications ♿
