The Next-Gen Smart Wheelchair is an advanced mobility solution designed to empower individuals with physical disabilities, including visually impaired users. It integrates Braille-script controls for seamless navigation, ensuring inclusivity and ease of use. A GPS module with voice assistance enhances real-time location tracking, helping users navigate safely while allowing caregivers to monitor movement remotely.
The dual-mode control system offers both joystick navigation (positioned near the hand) and remote control operation for enhanced flexibility. The wheelchair ensures superior safety with:
- Intelligent airbag deployment – Provides protection in case of sudden impact.
- Emergency braking system – Instantly stops the wheelchair to prevent accidents.
- LED illumination – Enhances visibility in low-light conditions.
- SOS emergency button – Connects directly to ambulance, police, or caregivers in critical situations.
For comfort and durability, the seat is designed with high-density cotton cushioning for prolonged use, while the lightweight aluminum frame ensures both portability and structural strength. A built-in microphone and speaker system allows users to communicate hands-free with close relatives and caregivers.
To enhance user safety beyond mobility, the wheelchair integrates:
- Heart Rate Monitoring System – Built near the joystick to detect abnormalities in real-time and alert caregivers if irregularities are detected.
- Obstacle detection with LiDAR & ultrasonic sensors – Prevents collisions.
- Self-balancing mechanism – Stabilizes the wheelchair on uneven terrain and inclines.
- Adaptive speed control – Adjusts speed based on surface conditions.
This next-gen Smart Wheelchair is more than just a mobility aid—it's a lifeline for independence, safety, health monitoring, and seamless connectivity.
