I thought it would be nice if openDog could respond to hand gesture signals instead of driving with the remote control. I really wanted to try to train a deep learning model to do this also so I can see how well it can distinguish between hand gestures. I used an NVIDIA Jetson Nano and used transfer learning with the tools provided by NVIDIA to retrain an existing vision detection model. For now I'm using digital pins to convey the five signals from the python code to the Teensy which controls the robot, eventually I'll wrap the machine vision script in a ROS wrapper to control the robot.

XROBOTS
Former toy designer, current YouTube maker and general robotics, electrical and mechanical engineer, I’m a fan of doing it yourself and innovation by trial and error. My channel is where I share some of my useful and not-so-useful inventions, designs and maker advice. Iron Man is my go-to cosplay, and 3D printing can solve most issues - broken bolts, missing parts, world hunger, you name it.
XRobots is the community around my content where you can get in touch, share tips and advice, and more build FAQs, schematics and designs are also available.
