Paper Title
Kinect Controlled Industrial Robot
Abstract
This approach introduces to a method of using Microsoft Kinect in the Industrial environment where human
intervention is impossible. The Kinect sensor was originally developed to be used in the field of gaming to provide a Virtual
environment; it recognizes the hand gesture based on RGB-D sensor present in it also performing image processing to
provide a skeleton image of the subject under presence. The Arm joint of the subject is taken into consideration in
controlling the actuation of the Robot which is established using Programmable Logic Controller. The entire process is
viewed using the supervisory and control tool (SCADA).The major limitation in industry is removing the calibration error
which is resolved by Robots using Microsoft Kinect.
Keywords - Microsoft Kinect, RGB-D Sensor, PLC, SCADA
