Abstract: In this project, we propose the development of an innovative smart electric wheelchair tailored to address the needs of individuals with mobility impairments. The primary objective is to enhance their quality of life and promote independence through the integration of cutting-edge technologies. The wheelchair's standout feature lies in its incorporation of advanced control mechanisms, notably head gesture control. This intuitive navigation system allows users to maneuver the wheelchair effortlessly, while also offering joystick controls. Furthermore, the wheelchair integrates a pulse

Abstract:
Gesture gloves are a promising solution for individuals who struggle with both mobility and communication. These gloves' sensor technology helps with nonverbal communication as well as mobility, which is especially beneficial for people who have trouble pushing manual wheelchairs[2]. The goal of gesture gloves, a notable development in assistive technology, is to empower people with disabilities by improving mobility and enabling effective communication through natural hand and finger movements[1]. The use of AI-controlled wheelchairs and smart gloves together raises the bar for assistive tech

The traditional wheelchair focuses on the “human-chair” motor function interaction to ensure the elderly and people with disabilities’ basic travel. For people with visual, hearing, physical disabilities, etc., the current wheelchairs show shortcomings in terms of accessibility and independent travel for this group. Therefore, this paper develops an intelligent wheelchair with multimodal human–computer interaction and autonomous navigation technology.

Abstract:
This paper presents a novel approach to wheelchair control using hand gesture recognition, enabling enhanced mobility for individuals with disabilities. The system employs computer vision and sensor-based technologies to interpret predefined hand gestures, translating them into wheelchair movement commands. Using machine learning algorithms, the model ensures accurate gesture recognition with minimal latency. The proposed system enhances accessibility by reducing dependence on physical joysticks or voice commands, making it suitable for users with varying motor abilities. Experimental results

Many mobility impaired users are unable to operate a powered wheelchair safely, without causing harm to themselves, others, and the environment. Smart wheelchairs that assist or replace user control have been developed to cater for these users, utilising systems and algorithms from autonomous robots. Despite a sustained period of research and development of robotic wheelchairs, there are very few available commercially.

This chapter introduces the main trends in the design of interfaces for smart wheelchairs. It stresses the importance of taking into account their similarity with autonomous mobile robots and the restrictions posed by the special characteristics of the users (people with severe motor and speech restrictions) and the task (indoor assisted navigation). With this background, the main features of the user-wheelchair interface are discussed, justifying the need for the adoption of an adaptive approach.
