Abstract

Today, technology is developing in the same direction in line with rapidly increasing of human needs. The work done to meet these needs makes life easier every day, and these studies are concentrated in robotics studies. Actually in recent year’s scientists use the word "Robot" to mean any man-made machine that can perform work or other action normally performed by humans, either automatically or by remote control because of this robot pervasive machine because of it is accuracy of work and doing thing that people can’t do in addition robot can work in dangerous regions that human can’t work in it because of all these reason robot became one of the most popular thing that scientists still persevere to make it better by finding new controllers and designs that make robot more efficient and more reliable and in our project we have built a robot arm with 5 DOF (degree of freedom). In fact there are several methods were implemented to make a 5-DOF manipulator capable of performing pick-and-place operations. but the problem is that all the controller is relentless that mean if we need to change the program of the arm we have to reboot and write or designs another one and upload it to arm robot this way apparently is not efficient, on balance we choose a different and unconventional method to control the robot arm by using image processor device that called (Kinect).
