Understanding Robotic Arm Hand Development with Object Detection Vehicle Applications

Abstract

The robotic arm has emerged as one of the most significant innovations in the field of automation and robotics, replicating human arm functionalities with precision, accuracy, and repeatability. Over the past decades, researchers have focused on developing robotic arms for a wide range of applications, including industrial manufacturing, medical surgery, agriculture, space exploration, and defence. Early models of robotic arms were primarily limited to wired control and simple pick-and-place operations, while recent developments have integrated advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision, machine learning, and Internet of Things (IoT) for achieving autonomous and intelligent operations.

This paper presents a comprehensive survey of existing robotic arm systems with emphasis on their design methodologies, actuation techniques, control mechanisms, and applications. A comparative analysis of past research works has been carried out to identify the trends and limitations in the evolution of robotic arm.
