Diseño e implementación de un sistema electrónico para el control de una silla de ruedas utilizada en personas con paraplejia

Abstract

This present work is carried out in order to help people with paraplegia , and some degree quadriplegia, to be held system allows controlling the mobility of a chair through four commands: • The Wireless Controller (Bluetooth, cell handling) • The semi-automatic control (local management) • The glove sensory control (management by a sensory glove) • Manual operation (Operation of an external agent) This thesis have several electronic cards that allow the use of each of the aforementioned controls, the control system is integrate the wireless controller that will be handled by the patient with paraplegia or people is ability to mobilize the patient. The system has the use of the phone with java programming previously installed in it; whitin the control system the movements of the chair with pulsed signals that activate different desired directions for use. The control handles sensory glove through the movement of a finger and with the help of reflective sensors send a signal to the microcontroller receives this signal and its internal programming output the signal of action for the movement of the chair.
