    Abstract :

    The proposed work describes complete design strategy of automated wheelchair which plays more and more important role in modern society for disable people to become locomotive. Nowadays, Human Computer Interface is one of the top research areas and the same is used in the proposed prototype model of automated wheelchair. In this paper image processing concept in MATLAB is used with hardware interface for generation of control signals by using serial communication port. According to the generated control signal the wheelchair either moves left, right, stop, and up.
