Implementation of a head orientation control system for wheelchairs using MEMS sensors, improving accessibility for patients.

The head orientation controller enables wheelchair navigation based on the user's head position, enhancing independence.
The system incorporates multiple sensors, including accelerometers and heart rate monitors, to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Using the PIC16F877A microcontroller allows for efficient processing of control signals derived from user bio-signals.
This approach represents a significant advancement over traditional joystick controls, making wheelchairs more user-friendly.

Dhanasekar et al. (2017) studied this question.
