Construction of a robotic arm to improve the communication of people with auditive or non-verbal disabilities

This article presents a system that works as an alternative solution to help teaching sign language to most hearing people in a different way, by using a robotic hand that allows the rest of the population to learn this language in order to communicate and include the deaf community in society. Study experimental in nature, since a communication system was made through a robotic arm that is capable of simulating sign language in order to improve the quality of life of people with hearing difficulties. The methodology was analyzed in two phases: the first design and development and the second phase: Programming and integration of hardware and software. The change of materials in the unions allowed to obtain a flexible hand, which returned to its original position, this meant the improvement of the design, as for the development of the application for the control of the Arduino, a login interface was developed for the administration of the robotic hand. This ongoing investigation has been able to build an articulated robotic hand, with a high degree of flexibility.
