1. INTRODUCTION
Robots are going to be the integral components of any
industry in future. There is no field in world which is not
focusing on robotics. Robotics was once a separate field. Now
each field has robotics as their research interest. All human
based works are being replaced by the robots. Industrial
robots play a major role in influencing this interest to a great
extent. They are one among the early robots which were
installed to make things easy. Since their launch in 1980’s, till Figure 2 Image Processing Based Control
now they have been a topic of high interest. Time and again
new developments are made based on the need.
The way these industrial robots are controlled forms the
primary objective in any upgrade. In the last decade, new
methods were proposed to control these robots more easily.
Wireless Control was the prime objective in most of the
proposals. The way of control differed. Control using
Accelerometer Sensors seemed desirable in most of them.
Some used mobile phones to remotely control these robots. In

spite of all these proposals, most of the industries are still
using the same teach pendant control. The objective of this
work is to analyze the reasons for industries’ “No interest in
new proposals” and gives a new suggestion on what can bring
about a change in the present system.

From the conceptual diagrams, the following observations can sent to the Microcontroller serially. This data is analyzed and

2) Only the sensing mechanism changes in them. At
the receiver end, they all have the same
components.
