Smart Wheelchair is a controlled device designed with the help of the user command to have self-mobility. It reduces the human effort of the user and encourages wheelchair riding. In fact, it also provides an opportunity for physically impaired people to move from one location to another. The main work of this paper is to gain more information, to construct a wheelchair using Raspberry Pi and RF controller to solve the difficulties faced by the physically challenged person. The device is fitted with the RF module, GSM and GPS module, servo motor, wheelchair and the whole module is controlled by wheelchair. To achieve a desire movement, the user will provide input commands to control the wheelchair and it is interfaced by RF communication and voice command. Depending upon the user convenience either RF communication or voice command can be used. Solution has also been proposed during an emergency by using an alert system. The movements received and the hand gesture shown by the visually impaired are recognizedandcontrastedwiththemodelsstoredonthereceiver.Ifthetemplates suit the templates stored then the home appliances are managedaccordingly.
