Abstract
Objective: The main objective of this paper is to explore the importance of advanced wheelchair which can substitute a better service for the physically challenged. According to livable hood, it is estimated that 10, 000, 0000 people are in the dire need of a wheel chair and it is also estimated that 156 developing countries are in need of it. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The automated wheelchair has a creative design with an ultrasonic sensor and a joystick controlled facility. It further includes a gesture controlled system for the comfort of individuals. This analytic method tries to focus on the importance of the advanced wheelchair in the 21st century. Finding: The ultrasonic sensor detects the objects and measures the distance. The MEMS based accelerometer ADXL335 sensor gives reading based on the change in the acceleration due to gravity analyzing. For achieving all the above actions, we are using Arduino MEGA2560 development board since it is easy to use with above mentioned modules and also the program. Applications/improvements: This paper tries to explore the highlights of creative joystick and gesture controlled wheelchair which can make the life of individual comfortable and happy.
Highlights
The capabilities of traditionally powered devices are introduced strongly by the automated wheelchair. These devices are useful mainly for the physically challenged in performing their daily tasks in a comfortable manner without taking the help of other person
The automated wheelchair has a creative design with an ultrasonic sensor and a joystick controlled facility
With the use of this system, we will make the persons feel energetic and relax from physical and mental stress. Using this system the physically challenged can perform their daily tasks without any risk
Summary
The capabilities of traditionally powered devices are introduced strongly by the automated wheelchair. The joystick and gesture controlled wheelchair provides automation which is very important for livable hood[1]. This project aims to highlight some concerns desirable for their happy moving in the environment. The automated wheelchair has following advantages: Firstly for avoiding the obstacles, secondly the distance measurements using ultrasonic sensor and thirdly for gesture based control of wheelchair. Development board using in built ATmega2560 controller It has 54 pins out of which 16 pins are Analog input pins and 15 are PWM output pins along with 8KB SRAM, 4KB EEPROM and 256KB Flash memory.
