This project describes the design of an innovative self-assistive technology that is used to facilitate the control of a wheelchair by using advanced voice commands and movements of eyes of the disabled people The performance of this micro-controller based and voice integrated design is evaluated in terms of accuracy and velocity in various environments. Apart from this, the principle of eyes motion tracking technology is based on Infrared emitter and photo-transistor which is attached on the user’s spectacles. The results show that it could be part of an assistive technology for the disabled persons without any third person’s assistance.

   In the proposed design,the main idea of using voice activated and eyes movement tracking technology for controlling the motion of the wheel chair and home automtion is to prove that it can be a unique solution for the severely disabled people. The use of this new technology in conjunction with a mechanical system is in order to simplify everyday life would spark interest in an ever growing modern society. Many people with disabilities do not have the dexterity necessary to control a joystick on an electrical wheel chair.

    This can be a great drawback for the quadriplagics who is permanently unable to move any of the arms or legs and also who are deaf and dumb. They can use their wheel chair easier only using voice command as well as their eyes movement. The aim of this study is to implement an interesting application using small and advanced vocabulary word recognition and eyes motion tracking system.
