Open-source robot arm meets hand tracking [๐GitHub below]
It is designed with an industrial mindset but built as a 3D-printed desktop system.
PAROL6 paired with a LEAP Motion controller is a nice example of how accessible robot teleoperation has become.
โข Hand motion is streamed to the robot at 100 Hz via UDP โข A pneumatic gripper is controlled by simple fist open and close gestures โข The entire robot stack is open source, from mechanics to control software
Combine that with low-latency hand tracking and you get a very practical platform for learning manipulation, teleoperation, and human-robot interfaces.
This kind of setup is great for experimentation, teleop, data collection, and teaching robots by demonstration
All without proprietary hardware or locked software.
