【 摘 要 】

This paper describes intelligent voice-controlled wheelchair which operates on user’s voice commands. The disabled people cannot move from one place to another on their own. They continuously need someone to help them in getting the wheelchair moving. This voice-controlled system makes them more independent. A voice-controlled wheelchair can provide easy access for physical disabled person who cannot control their movements especially by hands. This voice-controlled wheelchair helps them to drive the wheelchair without anyone’s help. This system can be controlled by the simple voice commands given by the user. Depending upon the direction specified in the commands, the Arduino will drive the motors. The speech recognition is done by voice recognition module, connected with Arduino. The principle of the developed wheelchair consists of motor system, voice recognition module that would be controlled by the microcontroller. The automatic obstacle detection system is included to the developed wheelchair by using ultrasonic sensors in order to break the developed wheelchair immediately when any obstacles suddenly come in the way of the developed wheelchair. Therefore, the developed voice-controlled wheelchair can provide easy access for people with physical disability and also offer automatic protection from obstacle collision if the mistake of any voice commands occurs.
