VOICE RECOGNITION BASED INTELLIGENCE WHEELCHAIR AND GPS TRACKING SYSTEM

Abstract

Mobility assistance is a major challenge for elderly and physically disabled individuals. Traditional wheelchairs require manual operation, which is often difficult for users with limited limb movement. To address this issue, a Voice Recognition-Based Intelligent Wheelchair with GPS Tracking System is proposed. The system uses speech recognition technology integrated with microcontroller-based motor control to move the wheelchair according to voice commands such as “forward,” “backward,” “left,” and “right.” Additionally, a GPS module continuously tracks the location of the wheelchair, allowing caregivers or family members to monitor movement through GSM-based notifications or a mobile application. This system enhances independence, safety, and accessibility for differently-abled individuals using IoT-based monitoring and smart control.
