Mind Bender
Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject SummaryWe are adding such a functionality in a wheelchair which will allow disabled users to move freely from one place to another and to perform certain actions. The project consists of Mind bender application, a wheelchair and Neuro Sky brainwave kit. User will first wear this kit on his head which is sort of a headwear gadget. On that gadget is a bluetooth button. The user will turn on bluetooth and connect it to the mindbender application. The user then will think the action they want to perform. If the user thinks about going forward, his thinking will generate signals which will be delivered to the mindbender application which will forward them to the online server. On the online server there will be certain algorithms which will calculate the result based on the obtained data recieved in the form of signals from the application. After processing if the desired result is found the wheelchair will start moving in that direction. The process is based on what the user wants to do. Similarly, the user will be able to move in all four directions (left, right, forward and backwards). Similarly there are other facilities available too. There will be a Water icon as well as a Tv icon on the mindbender application. If the user thinks about watching Tv a specific sound will be generate from the application to show that the user wants to watch Tv. Same with Water, when the user would want to drink water. He will think about water and the sound set againt water will be generated from the mindbender application giving those closeby an indication that the user wants to drink water.
Project ObjectivesThe major objective of this project is to help those in dire need of help facing problems in movement and talking. With the completion of our project we expect
- The disabled person will be able to understand the interface of the mind bender application
- The disabled person will be able to control and manipulate the movement of the wheelchair
- The disabled person will be able to use the application to generate the desired action he wants to perform.
- The wheelchair will ensure tissue integrity of the disabled person
- The entire system will provide mobility to the disabled person
- The wheelchair will provide comfortable sitting configuration to the disabled person
First of all we will create our mindbender application. The application will contain a wheelchair icon, water icon and Tv icon. The will be a bluetooth button on top to connect the device with the application. There will be certain animation set againt the wheelchair icon. For instance say the user is thinking about moving forward, as the wheelchair starts moving forward so does the wheelchair on the icon provided on the application.
Moreover we will develop a cloud server. The major perpose of cloud server is data processing and result generation. With the use of machine learning algorithms we will create a cloud server. The cloud server will recieve all the data from the application and perfrom calculations on that data. If the desired request is fulfilled by the algorithms only then a certain action will be performed.
User is required to sit on the wheelchair with his Nuero Sky device on. Once the device is connected to the application the user will think either about the direction he wants to move in or drink water or watch tv. based on that signal, algorithms will perform execution and if the result feasible the wheelchair will perform the action.
The wheelchair will be providing the following benifits to the disabled person
- A comfortable seating facility
- Stable and strong structure
- Smooth wheels
- Easy transport facility
- Consistent reliability
The Mindbender application will provide the following benifits to the disabled user.
- User friendly interface
- Icons for specific actions
- Bluetooth connectivity
- Apart from that the biggest benifit turns out that the user will not have to be totally dependend on people around them.
The final deliverable consists of
Wheelchair
Mindbender Application
1st the final delivery consists of the wheelchair. The wheelchair will have arduino attached on it. In that arduino will be an IC chip which will contain all the programming of the movement which the wheelchair would perform. That arduino present on the wheelchair will be connected to the mindbender application with the help of bluetooth.
2nd the final delivery consists of the mindbender application which the users family or anyone in the medical institute can download from playstore. The application is the core deliverable as it is resposible for recieving and sending signals. Moreover, on the basis of result produced by the cloud server, the application which will be connected to the wheelchair will enable the wheelchair to execute movement in the specific direction.
