In this paper "Smart Wheelchair using Fuzzy Inference System" has been presented, which has a user friendly guidance system and has ability to avoid obstacles. For guiding the wheelchair Finger Tip Control is used and for obstacle avoidance Ultrasonic Sensors have been used. The fuzzy If-Then rules have been defined which govern the functioning of the wheelchair in different conditions. The system is simulated on fuzzy tool box and results have been generated. The use of fuzzy control allows the use of inexpensive and imprecise sensors, which will keep the overall system cost and complexity low. Using fuzzy logic control makes the implementation of the system much more practical which is the number one goal.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
