The authors has proposed an idea of ARM-COMS system to support remote communication via arm-supported embodied communication monitor system. Head motion plays a central role as a trigger to control the arm-supported monitor of ARM-COMS. However, the motion of head is not so dynamic in general. Therefore, this research implemented a robotic arm control system to mimic hand gestures and verified its movement. First, this paper presents the overview of a robotic arm-based hand gesture system, which is composed of a 6-axis robotic arm, hand-gesture tracking sensor, and a control unit. Then, the procedure of arm-control is presented. Reviewing the results of hand gesture experiments, this paper discusses the feasibility of robotic arm control system.
