Abstract

New development in sensors, radar and ultrasonic technologies has proved to be a boon for electronics travelling aids (ETAs). These devices are widely used by blind and physically challenged peoples. C5 laser cane, Mowat sensor, belt and binaural sonic aid, NAV guide cane are among popular electronic travelling aids used by blind peoples. For physically challenged person electric wheel chairs controlled by joystick, eye movement and voice recognition are also available but they have their own limitation in terms of operating complexity, noise environment and cost. Our paper proposes an automated innovative wheelchair controlled by neck position of person. It uses simple LEDs, photo sensor, motor and microcontroller to control the movement of wheelchair.
