Abstract

Currently, with the development of society and advancements in technology, there is an increasing need for elderly and disabled people to improve their quality of life and self-reliance. Under such context, designing an smart wheelchair with easy operation, comprehensive performance, and health monitoring functions has become a significant focus in the market. In this project, we used the inertial sensor MPU150 for wheelchair motion direction and speed control, designed the wheelchair control system into the form of glasses. We also improved the PPG probe and its analog front end, presenting an innovative method to detect the weak pulse wave signal from the user’s head. Furthermore, the vital signs collected by the wheelchair can be shared through the internet for medical staff and family members to check the health conditions of the user in real-time.
