Abstract


Wheelchairs are widely used by people who suffer from a disability, spinal cord injury, accident, or have difficulty in walking. Wheelchairs are of great use now-a-days to aged persons at home, orphanage and hospitals. This paper aims at presenting a wheelchair which can be used without external assistance. The wheelchair can be controlled by using the hand gestures of the user themselves. The hand gestures are being sensed with the help of the 3-axis accelerometer sensor. The output of this MEMS sensor is being given to the ATMEGA-328 microcontroller chip.

Keywords


Gesture, Accelerometer, atmega- 328.
