An IOT Driven Eyeball And Gesture-Controlled Smart Wheelchair System for Disabled Person

The area of smart homes has evolved with goal of restoring the capacity of physically disabled people, aged, and others with limited mobility to accomplish critical every day activities by giving sufficient help via current technology devices. One of most difficult aspects of smart wheelchair's design is assuring that it functions appropriately and effectively. Smart wheelchairs make it easier for challenged people to travel indoor areas and perform daily activities on their own. In this device, manual wheelchair operation is substituted by automatic wheelchair control, which is operated by eyeball movement, allowing patients to feel freer and with less or no trouble in their movements. To determine position of eye pupil, a continuous image is acquired with assistance of a camera, which will then be subjected to numerous image processing techniques. The Gesture Functions are incorporated as well, allowing the user to use gestures for basic specifications/commands, allowing this wheelchair to be used for a variety of applications.
