 OBJECTIVE
AN AUTOMATED WHEELCHAIR AIMS TO PROVIDE AID
TO THOSE HANDICAPPED AND PHYSICALLY
CHALLENGED PERSONS BY PROVIDING THEM WITH
SOME SORT OF MOBILITY WHICH WOULD GREATLY
HELP THEM.
AUTOMATED WHEELCHAIR CONSISTS OF A MAJOR
CONTROLLER UNIT WHICH OBTAINS THE REQUIRED
INPUT FROM THE SENSORS OR MANUALLY FROM THE
JOYSTICK OR VOICE COMMAND.
 INTRODUCTION

• AUTOMATED WHEEL CHAIR IS MECHANICALLY CONTROLLED

DEVICES DESIGNED TO HAVE SELF-MOBILITY WITH THE HELP OF THE
USER COMMAND. THIS REDUCES THE USER’S HUMAN EFFORT AND
FORCE TO DRIVE THE WHEELS FOR WHEELCHAIR.
• FURTHERMORE IT ALSO PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY FOR VISUALLY
OR PHYSICALLY IMPAIRED PERSONS TO MOVE FROM ONE PLACE
TO ANOTHER.
• THIS IS IMPLEMENTED USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND
MACHINE LEARNING.
• THE IDEA IS TO BE ABLE TO PROGRAM IT IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE
WHEELCHAIR WOULD BE ABLE TO FOLLOW A CERTAIN PATH ON A
PRESS OF A BUTTON.
• FOR EXAMPLE, IF A PERSON HAS TO MOVE FROM POINT A TO
POINT B, THE PROGRAM OR THE CODE WILL BE WRITTEN
ACCORDINGLY AND THE PROGRAM WILL BE SAVED IN THE
MEMORY.
• EACH PROGRAM WILL BE OF ONE PATH. SO ACCORDING
TO THE NUMBER OF PATHS, MORE PROGRAMS CAN BE
ADDED.

• THE MACHINES CAN ALSO BE USED IN OLD AGE HOMES

WHERE THE OLD AGE PERSONS HAVE
DIFFICULTY IN THEIR MOVEMENTS. THE DEVICES SERVE AS
A BOON FOR THOSE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR MOBILITY.
