Abstract: As the research project name suggest, the android operated robot arm is designed so as it can perform the activities of a human arm by the instructions given through android device (android app). A signal is generated when specific buttons on the android application are pressed which allows microcontroller to make the arm move according to the predefined program. Here Android application being the command center of the robotic arm as it commands the arm to move or grab specific things as the instruction is transferred to the arm through android JAVA and microcontroller language. At the receiver the signal is provided to the microcontroller which does several manipulations in this data using different scaling factors through programming, which controls the direction and speed of the motors that is responsible for the motion of the robotic arm
