Many people suffer from temporary or permanent physical disabilities due to illness or accidents. For those daily activities are difficult and require a wheelchair for locomotion and is very essential. Manual or electrical wheelchair are satisfying most of the low and middle level disability person where they can use the wheelchair independently. However, in severe cases, it is difficult or impossible to use wheelchair independently. IoT-based smart wheelchair enhances mobility and independence for individuals with mobility impairments. The project integrates sensors, actuators, and communication modules with mobile app integration to enable obstacle detection and avoidance. Extensive testing validates the system's effectiveness in navigating complex environments. The project showcases the potential of IoT technology in creating intelligent wheelchair systems, empowering users with increased mobility, safety, and independence. It also provides an opportunity for visually or physically impaired persons with obstacle detection system, which minimize the chance of collision which using it. We tried to provide all the features required in a smart wheelchair at lowest price for the people to afford it without any difficulty and to use utmost independent on others.
