IoT-Enabled Autonomous Wheelchair with Real-Time Health Monitoring and Intelligent Navigation Assistance
Objective
The objective is to create an IoT-enabled smart wheelchair that offers real-time health monitoring and autonomous navigation, improving safety, mobility, and independence for users.
Abstract
This project presents an IoT-enabled autonomous wheelchair using Arduino Mega, DC motors, motor drivers, heartbeat sensor, temperature sensor, Bluetooth module, NodeMCU, GPS module, GSM module, ultrasonic sensor, voice module, and buzzer. The system continuously monitors the user's heart rate and body temperature while uploading the data to an IoT platform for remote monitoring. Ultrasonic sensors provide obstacle detection for safe navigation, and the voice module enables voice-controlled wheelchair operation. GPS and GSM modules support real-time location tracking and emergency alerts. The proposed system offers an intelligent, safe, and user-friendly mobility solution that enhances independence and healthcare support for individuals with physical disabilities.
Keywords: Arduino Mega, Smart Wheelchair, IoT, Health Monitoring, GPS, GSM, Voice Control, Assistive Technology.
