Abstract
The development of a smart wheelchair represents a significant humanitarian
advancement, addressing the unique challenges faced by individuals
with physical disabilities who possess dreams and ambitions. Our
project aims to facilitate greater independence and ease of life for these
individuals by integrating advanced technologies into a wheelchair design.
Key features include voice-operated control through cutting-edge
voice recognition technology, allowing effortless and intuitive control
for those who cannot use their arms. The wheelchair is equipped with
sophisticated sensors for obstacle detection and avoidance, ensuring
safe and uninterrupted movement in all directions. A novel system for
smooth stair ascension enables seamless and safe traversal of stairs, expanding
mobility across various terrains. Advanced lifting or extension
mechanisms provide high-reaching capability, allowing users to access
elevated areas such as high shelves or counters. Additionally, state-ofthe-
art sensors monitor vital signs like heart rate and blood pressure,
offering real-time health and safety monitoring, with notifications and
alerts in case of abnormal readings. By incorporating these features,
the smart wheelchair not only enhances mobility but also empowers
users to meet their needs independently, improving their quality of life
and enabling them to pursue their goals with greater ease.
In this project, the concept of automation includes several aspects,
which is the automatic irrigation process, continuous temperature checks,
and the provision of a ventilation system if necessary, in addition to
providing protection for the farm in the event of rain, fire, or attempts
to steal, and providing appropriate lighting to carry out the photosynthesis
process in In the event of a shortage, in addition to providing a
fertilization system that works automatically on a weekly basis, continuous
examination of water tanks, and sending sms messages in the
event of a decrease in the required limit.
