Abstract:
This paper develops a system to aid people who are physically challenged with leg impairment to navigate indoor with ease. It also aims to provide the traditional powered wheelchair with added features provided with low cost design. The system is divided into 2 units. First part consists of sensors and direction inputs which are interfaced with motors through microcontroller. The obstacle avoidance scheme is developed based on fuzzy algorithm to prevent accidents. The wheelchair is operated by two DC motors. The direction keys are used to change the direction of the wheelchair. The other part consists of Bluetooth module connected to microcontroller to control domestic electronic devices. An android app is built for user interface. Using Relay, we can switch ON/OFF the electronic devices.
