Smart autonomous wheelchair controlled by voice commands-aided by tracking system

الملخص EN

This study focuses on the design of an autonomous wheelchair based smart driving features for disabled persons.

The movement directions and position tracking of the wheelchair are controlled and localized by pre-defined voice commands and global positioning system (GPS), respectively.

Arduino microcontroller based on speaker dependent voice recognition module and tracking system based on quad-board SIM808 has been used to help the wheelchair navigation.

The experimental tests of the proposed system have been done and given satisfactory results in controlling the wheelchair and making a call on demand.

Hence the proposed system is a simple, easy to use and lowcost hardware for designing
