Abstract
In the pursuit of human well-being and safety, technology has rapidly advanced, and the
robotics industry has emerged as a vital component. Despite this progress, many robots
lack real-time interaction with human input.
The ’Secure and Efficient Robotics for Hazardous Work Environments’ (SEER) project
addresses this gap by enabling human control of an arm robot with a gripper through a
glove interface. This wireless glove-arm system utilizes defined movements and sensors
for control.
By implementing this project, we aim to replace humans in performing risky tasks across
sectors such as chemicals, laboratories, oil and gas, mining, nuclear, medical, laser, and
x-ray industries.
The project prioritizes human safety by deploying robots in hazardous environments, reducing
the risk of injuries or diseases. Moreover, it enhances productivity and accuracy,
mitigates errors, and maintains work quality.
The SEER project not only enhances safety and efficiency but also offers potential cost
savings by eliminating the need for specialized equipment and reducing maintenance expenses.
