in this paper, aims in designing a leg for physically challenged people who can be fixed to amputated leg and the movement of the leg can be controlled by the user himself by TV remote depending on his requirement. The system makes use of a one DC motor which is used for controlling the knee movement, Another DC motor connected to wheels will be in the shoe of ROBO leg, TV remote and an IR receiver to control the knee movement and the wheel movement of leg. The controlling device of the whole system is a microcontroller. IR receiver, two DC motors are interfaced to the microcontroller through motor drive the microcontroller gets input from IR receiver which receives the data related to key pressed in the TV remote. This input is processed by the microcontroller and acts accordingly DC motors.
