ABSTRACT
In this project we design an artificial hand, i.e “Animatronics” hand which works in synchronization with the human hand. This will be achieved by the use of servo motors and micro controllers, in tandem to achieve the goal of mimicking the basic movements of a human hand.
These hands can be used in a multitude of applications, such as prosthetic hands, grippers , laboratory assistants,etc. The main and formost aim of this is to provide a solution that is
