Pi 5 Human Robot Collaboration Kit
Build an AI Robot Arm That Reads Your Reach and Hands You Tools — Raspberry Pi 5 Human Robot Collaboration Kit
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Imagine a robot arm that watches your hand movements and instinctively passes you the screwdriver or multimeter probe you need next. With this kit, you will build a Pi 5-powered collaborative system where a camera tracks skeletal points in real time, and four servos move a 4-DOF arm to assist like a lab partner. The project mirrors real-world AI robotics used in smart factories and healthcare, bringing human intent recognition directly to your workbench.
What You'll Build
A fully functional human-robot collaboration station. The Raspberry Pi 5 processes your reach direction from the Pi Camera Module 3, and the arm moves precisely to the requested tool. You will have a hands-on demo that shows adaptive assistance, ideal for engineering projects, Smart India Hackathon prototypes, or tinkering lab displays.
What You'll Learn
- Deploy MediaPipe-based skeleton tracking on Raspberry Pi 5
- Control multiple MG996R servos simultaneously via PCA9685
- Design human-robot handover logic for tool delivery
- Integrate NVMe SSD for high-speed AI inference data logging

Who This Kit Is For
If you are a B.Tech ECE or EEE student preparing a project for Smart India Hackathon, an ATL Tinkering Lab innovator in CBSE Class 12, or a robotics club member at IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS, this kit turns your Pi 5 into an intelligent collaborator. It goes beyond simple sensor-interfacing to teach real-time AI and adaptive motion control, directly addressing robotics and healthcare hackathon themes.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR on the box to open the AI companion; it knows the exact wiring and code for this kit. You can also message us on WhatsApp — our team typically responds within a few hours with specific debugging steps.
Can I reprogram the arm for different hand gestures or tasks?
Absolutely. The MediaPipe framework and PCA9685 library are fully configurable. The AI companion includes examples for custom gesture mapping and tool swapping so you can extend the logic to your own application.
Is this kit suitable for the Smart India Hackathon 2025 healthcare or robotics theme?
Yes — the project demonstrates real-time human motion understanding and physical assistance, directly aligning with themes like “AI-based assistive devices” or “Robotics for healthcare.” You can present a working prototype without starting from scratch.
What if I want to add a gripper or a second camera later?
The PCA9685 driver can handle more servos for a gripper, and the Pi 5 has enough USB bandwidth to add a second camera. The AI companion will guide you through expanding the build with additional modules.
Skeleton tracking on Pi 5 detects human reach direction — robot arm moves to assist by handing over the requested tool.
