Project Title

Health Monitoring Wheelchair

Project Area of Specialization Internet of ThingsProject Summary

Disability of a victim can be of any type and can be have sever level. Also, with the increasing population of these people one such proposed system is of high need to the society. Deep down in the severity of this causes it is seen that people who cannot manipulate the wheelchair with their arm due to lack of force or constant attention faces major problems in controlling wheelchair.

On considering all the possibilities that we have decided to go with manual as well as automated option as it can be operated by all. It gives high level of safety and at the same times comes with useful additional features like automated and health monitoring system. The proposed system is economical and compact.

Project Objectives

Voice Controlled: It can be controlled by verbal command that a user provides and chair moves accordingly.

Manual or Self-Moving: A standard version of wheelchair which has got wheels on both side and can be dragged by the user or can be controlled with joystick.

Sensor Controlled: It will use sensors like accelerometer and flux sensor. From stability view it is very good but at the same time it requires high level of accuracy while designing and programming.

Android control: Chair can be controlled through Mobile app.

Health Monitoring:  Wheel chair will be smart enough to monitor the health of patient and notify the attended/Doctor if any kind of emergency.

Project Implementation Method

Literature Review: To study the sensor integration, it’s working capability and GUI application.

Sensor and Module Integration: Initially import required sensors and modules and then integrate with Wheelchair.

Programming: To write pseudo code then convert it into real programming language, remove all bugs.

Prototype Model: Before go for real wheelchair designing, apply all possible features and algorithm on prototype model.

Simulation: We will have the proper simulation and calculated result earlier, but implementing it on real system will be our main task.

PCB Designing: To design electronic circuit and implement it on PCB.

Solid Works Design: To make wheelchair design on software to overcome the physical flows before go for hardware.

Implementation of Hardware Design: To apply solid work design on hardware, wheelchair frame will be robust and made up of metal.

Assembly: Fix all components, sensors, PCB and miscellaneous equipment on wheelchair.

Field Testing: After testing we will be finalizing the hardware with proper presentations and with best accurate working.

Report Writing: After performing all above task in given time we will be writing report in which we will describe each and every working component in best understanding formats.

Benefits of the Project

The wheelchair will predict the patient’s health to his doctor by using health monitoring sensor. 

Use of IOT helps us to make the database as well as helps us in communication to the nearest hospital if help needed.

All required monitoring data will be send on mobile number of doctor and relative.

GPS can easily track a person in case of mishap.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The Final Deliverable will consist of a 4-wheeled metal body structure, having geared motors and Motherboard (sensors and modules).luxury seat with belts will be part of structure. Medical kit also installed in our system which will help our patients to take medicine on time. Complete Wheelchair with battery will be submit in working condition.
