The main aim of our project is to build a hydraulic arm that can grip or pick thinks.

We have implemented the hydraulic arm that can be controlled by gesture commands.

We have proposed a simple algorithm for hand controlling.

A hydraulic drive system is a drive or transmission system that uses pressurized hydraulic fluid to power hydraulic machinery. The term hydrostatic refers to the transfer of energy from flow and pressure, not from the kinetic energy of the flow.

A hydraulic drive system consists of three parts: The generator (e.g. a hydraulic pump), driven by an electric motor, a combustion engine or a windmill; valves, filters, piping etc. (to guide and control the system); and the actuator (e.g. a hydraulic motor or hydraulic cylinder) to drive the machinery

Pascal’s law the basis of hydraulic drive systems. As the pressure in the system is the same, the force that the fluid gives to the surroundings is therefore equal to pressure area. In such a way, a small piston feels a small force and a large piston feels a large force.

A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid

The underlying principle of the hydraulic jack and hydraulic press

Force amplification in the braking system of most motor vehicles.

Used in artesian wells, water towers, and dams.

The power for a robotic arm can either be electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic.

Hydraulics is putting liquids under pressure

Pneumatics is putting gases under pressure.

The power supply acts like the robot's heart and muscles. It provides the energy for pushing, pulling, turning and lifting.

The hydraulic arm that can grip or pick thinks in industrial purpose.

These arms are used in assembly lines of mega factories to assemble the various parts of product and also to paint vehicles.

They are also used in earth movers to pick up heavy weight and keep them where required.

Same principle is being used in JCB’s , automobiles, lifters.

When pressing on the syringe system, be sure to press only the input plunger with your thumb and hold the output syringe with your other hand to prevent the syringe from separation.

Do not use syringe as a “squirt gun”.

Wear safety glasses.

Follow all normal laboratory rules.

The robot used can have many industrial uses.

When used in locomotive format can be of great use in the production and packing field.

The simplicity and easy to repair design makes it really cheap.

Cost is low.

Easy to design.

If more time and more efforts would have been put into the model, more complexity could have been brought out.

Moreover instead of manual operation of syringes could have been replaced by pre-defined computer program or merely by pressing switch operated.

Further more varieties and more flexibility to add or replace any part according to the requirements can be done to improve its use and increase field of usage and to make it more universal or flexible

The prepared mechanism has been successfully constrained and executed to carry out the required work of picking up the weight of the object like table tennis ball and to put them in to the placed at different location.
