The use of wheelchairs is prevalent worldwide, with an estimated 70 million people relying on them for mobility, according to the World Health Organization. A fact sheet from the World Health Organization says that wheelchairs help people move around with or without assistance who have impairments that make them unable to walk. Wheelchair bound people need to be supervised and assisted by someone to move around. Instead of hiring health care employees to assist the impaired patients, we developed a wheelchair assistant robot. In our system, initially, the user will make a request through a webpage to pick up impaired patients. When the robot reaches the wheelchair location, it docks with the wheelchair and navigates autonomously towards its destination. Once the wheelchair reaches the destination point, the robot undocks from the wheelchair. The robot will be idle at the charging station until it receives the next request from the user. The development of this wheelchair assistant robot can improve the mobility and independence of impaired patients while reducing the need for constant supervision and assistance. This technology has the potential to significantly improve the quality of life for millions of individuals worldwide. A minimum number of Autonomous Assistance robots in the health care sector can manage multiple wheelchairs efficiently. So, with the help of this method, we could reduce the cost of purchases with ease. And this article explains how the robot is developed and subjected to real-time situations with or without a payload and helps us understand the further research findings in wheelchair-based mobility.
