DESIGN OF LOW COST ARM CONTROL ROBOTIC MOVING WHEEL CHAIR FOR ELDERLY & PHYSICALLY DISABLED PERSONS
This paper deals with the concept of design and implementation of a low-cost model of an arms control moving chair using ATmega8.This moving chair can move forward, backward, left, and right. This is done with the movement (tilt) of the accelerometer, and the chair stops when there is no movement of the accelerometer. The values of the three-dimensional axis of the accelerometer can be varied and ...
