Nowadays more and more individuals are turning to robots to do their work, because robots are more versatile, accurate, reliable and also reducehuman efforts. Robotic arms are programmed robot with similar function of a human arm. Aim of our project is to develop a robotic arm which helps the physically handicapped person to write. The mechanism is programmed with speech recognition system and makes the user to write what he speaks. The robotic arm is programmed to write down the words that patient or individual pronounces to the microphone. To perform the writing operations, the robotic arm will be fitted with a pen. It can also make you draw small sketches. It will be a low cost device that can be programmed to enable the people who are physically challenged to write. This paper describes the basic design of automated writing arm.
