Abstract

a robotic arm is a mechanical adaptation of human arm with similar functional capability, but with set pre-defined task and instruction it can perform its task with more precision and accuracy. But programming a robotic arm still requires a specific skill set in programming plus following a complex mathematical regime. Hence the user of this robotic arm needs to be a professional trained for this purpose. In this paper we have proposed a designed of a system which enables software with GUI (Graphical User Input) to control functions of Robotic Arm or guide it. The aim of this idea is to remove the complex mathematical regime and provide the user with a simple user friendly interface, which will enable even regular day to day users to use this robotic arm to perform their tasks. All the internal mathematical complexities will be abstracted from the user. The GUI provided to the user would communicate with the software embedded on the robotic arm, enabling control through the GUI. The Robotic Arm uses inverse kinematics for its movement.
