In today’s era human-machine interaction is becoming widespread. So, with the introduction of new technologies the gap between machines and humans is being reduced to ease the standard of living. Gestures have played a crucial role in diminishing this gap. This paper deals with design and implementation of an accelerometerbased hand gesture controlled robot controlled wirelessly using a small low cost, 3-axis accelerometer. A novel algorithm for gesture identification has been developed to replace the approach of conventional controlling mechanism of robots via buttons etc. by an innovative hand gesture based controlling. Using a microcontroller system the program has been written & executed.
