Design of IoT Based Robotic Arm for Health Care

In biomedical engineering field, designs of the robots challenges have greater mobility and flexibility. Much kind of robots have been developed for people to keep free from loneliness, to take care of health conditions and monitoring heath issues. But in healthcare applications, lot of robots is involved for surgery, care taking robots, Motion robots, and medication robots. All these robots are designed and programmed for various applications. In a step ahead some robotic features are added for some pathological cases also to compensate for original feature. Our physiological signals also can be used for motion actions related to our day to day activities. Among the signals, Electromyography (EMG) and EEG signals are related to the movement and thought activities. EMG signals are the muscle related signals for movement actions. Various research papers are related to the analysis of EMG signals in paralysis condition, arthritis and amputees. But still lot of challenges exists in the motion analysis through EMG signals. Motivated by all these issues, this paper is focused on the design of a robotic arm for amputees based on a DSP processor TMS320C5X and the actions are all transferred to the physician to know their condition. This simple, painless arm and gives better relief to the amputees.
