ABSTRACT
Due to the current labor shortage situation, combined with the spread of COVID-19, the researchers came up with the idea of developing a contactless remote robotic arm system based on IoT. This research focuses on developing prototypes of remote control three-axis robotic arm via the Internet that can be applied in industrial, medical, and other applications. Abiding by the new normal situation, the Kinect sensor control input, a device capable of receiving commands from human gestures without touching, is used to alleviate the spread of the virus. From the development and experiment, it can be shown that the developed artifact can receive commands from human gestures to remotely control the robotic arm via the Internet in accordance with the intended purpose. © 2021 IEEE.
