One of our primary goals in the search for a project idea was to find a project that would be of immediate practical use and have results that could be seen working in the real world.We discuss with Dr. Samer Mayaleh about an idea for project to be commercial and in the same time To integrate many different aspects of the Electrical Engineering field .We found an idea that was about handicapped and elderly people .It has been seen that the elderly and handicapped that benefit from the use of wheelchairs often have minor accidents.This is due to the loss of control of the wheels or other controlling interface.These accidents can lead to injury and can be easily avoided. Some handicapped are unable to use a powered wheelchair due to their poor motor skills .The main goal for our project that to design a system that would provide extra safety features to wheelchair to prevent common wheelchair accidents. The creation of an electrical wheeled  chair will provide the following benefits for the end customer:  Assistance to elderly people and people with special needs who are unable to properly rock the chair themselves . Assistance to young children whose legs are unable to reach the floor .prevent common wheelchair accidents
