Smart wheelchair
Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject SummaryMany people are suffering of temporary or permanent disabilities due to illnesses or accidents.
For cases of difficult or impossible walking, the use of a wheelchair is becoming essential.
In this project, we have designed a SMART WHEELCHAIR using Arduino..
This wheelchair can be control by
1-joystick 2-Hand gesture control 3-Android app
4- voice control
Project Objectives•The objective of this project is to propose a model of a "SMART WHEELCHAIR".
•To facilitate the disable people.
•Wireless control of wheelchair..
•To bring easiness in human life activities.
Project Implementation Method- There are 3 transmitters which we are going to use for controling the wheel chair.
- These trasmitters are
- joystick 2. hand gesture control 3. Andriod phone 4. voice
- There will be Only One receiver which will connect 1 transmitter at a time and will receive signal from that transmitter.
- This receiver will be placed at wheelchair.
- Joystick transmitter consist of
joystick -> arduino-> bluetooth
2.Hand gesture transmitter consist of
adxl335 sensor -> arduino -> bluetooth
3.Andriod phone
android app->bluetoorh
4.voice
microphone ->voice recognition module -> arduino
-> bluetooth
Receiver consists of
bluetoorh -> arduino -> motor driver-> wheelchair
Benefits of the ProjectSome senior citizens come to a point in their life when they realize they may need help walking. Assistance can be due to old injuries flaring up, arthritis, hip problems, parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis and many other issues. While the realization that you need help to walk may be a difficult fact to accept, but there is a bright side to the situation. There are many benefits that wheelchairs provide to senior citizens as well as disable citizen

Feeling unbalanced when you walk is a common reason many seniors life a sedentary lifestyle. You may have fear to walk within your home while you are alone or have a fear of falling. This type of fear can cause you to become isolated from friends and family. A wheelchair is a great source of help, it will give you back your independence and free spirit to move around your home and the outdoors as you wish. You can begin enjoying your hobbies and many activities that you have given up.
- Comfort – Many wheelchairs provide support for your back and comfortable seating. You will be able to be seated comfortably with strong support that encourages good posture.
- Enjoy Activities – Enjoying the outdoors is usually the common activity new wheelchair users look forward to doing the most. You can enjoy picnics with friends at the park, explore park trails, bird watch, capture pictures of scenery and much more. You can go shopping at your favorite stores, dine at restaurants, travel, go to the movies, visit friends and family and much more. Wheelchairs provide the user with a more active lifestyle that usually results in a happier, healthier more positive outlook on life.
