_Automated_Smart_Wheelchair_
The "Automated Smart Wheelchair" project is an IOT project born within the "Tito Sarrocchi" IIS in Siena to add features not present on an electric wheelchair.
The first step was to replace the joystick, used to move the chair, by a self-built microcontroller board (ArduinoNANO) and a DAC capable of replicating the voltages it produced.
Subsequently via a bluetooth connection it was possible to pilot the chair via a tablet or mobile phone remotely without the active contribution of the passenger, as is the case with quadriplegics. Moreover, using sensors (TOF) is possible to avoid the obstacles and follow the walls of a corridor.
This project was developed with the contribution of the Rotary Club Siena Montaperti.(https://rotarymontaperti.it/)
IIS Tito Sarrocchi is part of the Tuscan Robotics Network: http://www.roboticatoscana.it/
