  • Abstract:
  • This project Introduces a concept for gesture controlled wheel chair system designed to enhance mobility and accessibility for individuals having physical disabilities. It is an electrically operated wheel chair enabled with hand motion based movement control out of several inputs. An ATMEGA328p Micro-controller is used on an Arduino board to which 3 Hall Effect sensors are connected. These sensors read the hand positions. It also has a pair of relay units which switches the pair of motors. The setup also contains a LCD which shows the status in real time. The Hall sensors are kept at the corresponding directions (forward, right, left). As the hand moves to a particular direction, the Hall sensors connected to the hand detects the magnetic field as the controller detects it and enables it to move to the corresponding direction. As a result the patient is able to control it with his/her hand. Providing an oxygen and IR control makes it convenient and smart.
