= Description =
The Robot Glove is an example of a telepresence application suitable for demonstration purposes.  

The code is written in 100% Java.  The P5Glove interface is provided by Carl Kenners P5 Absolute Mode dll that is available on the p5glove group on Yahoo.  The Lynxmotion Robot Arm is controlled via the RS232 interface with the Java comm library.  This allows theoretically "portable" code across Windows and Linux.

Bending the fingers opens and closes the gripper.  The yaw axis controls the base rotation.  Pitch controls the wrist.  The Z-axis controls the shoulder at the base and the Y-axis controls the elbow.
