Abstract:
In today’s world, surveillance and monitoring of a place as well as delivery of pay loads for variety of reasons is of utmost importance. A drone will help in surveying a place and to carry a pay load to be dropped on site by monitoring through a display/ VR gear. Hand gesture is used to control the movement of the drone and an onboard camera is used for streaming the aerial view of the place. This paper describes how the drone is being controlled using hand gesture for aerial surveillance and how a payload can be aerially dropped via a drone. The flight controller board has been built using the Arduino Nano. Flex sensors and gyroscope have been used for the implementation of hand gesture; user will be able to control the forward, backward, leftward, rightward movements as well as Yaw and Pitch using the gyroscope sensor. This paper initially describes about how the glove assembly is built and then discusses about its components and its working. The main goal of this project is to provide efficient and convenient situational awareness and payload delivery system, at an affordable cost that can be used for both civil and military purposes.
