= 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 [http://www,lynxmotion.com Lynxmotion] Robot Arm is controlled via the RS232 interface with the Java comm library.  This allows theoretically "portable" code across Windows and Linux.  The arm uses a [http://www.seetron.com/ssc.htm Mini SSC] Serial Servo Controller.

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.
