碩士 === 遠東科技大學 === 電機工程研究所 === 104 === The focus of this study explores how to combine Microsoft Kinect and servo motors with a robotic arm, utilizing a speedy yet stable method to create a sense of natural interaction with the robotic arm platform. The idea came from possible approaches to the drawing application, by using visual sensor to control the robotic arm for drawing, not the traditional keyboard or joy stick input that requires more complex interaction, to reduce the initial learning curve. Coupled with visual & gesture control, the user can get a deeper sense of emerging experience. Natural interaction emphasizes the concept of human user as the direct control input, that the user does not require external control interface, only hand gesture is required as the virtual control. This study utilizes Kinect depth imaging sensor, combined with the drawing robotic arm, to create a natural motion control platform, and imports Microsoft Visual C♯ programming language to improve the efficiency of software programming. This paper examines the unique properties of Kinect depth imaging sensor, investigates the position & movement control of the pen holding robotic arm platform.
