Abstract

In this paper, we propose a system for controlling the seat of the electric wheelchair depending on the slope of the terrain in real time by using the ATmega smart control based on the board. Smart control board includes a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor and Tilt sensor, when the electric wheelchairs pass slope of the terrain, they use three sensors to identify terrain configuration in real time. We also applied the Complementary Filter in the gyro sensor and acceleration sensor, so the electric wheelchairs know the exact terrain by solving the interference during the movement. Based on this, the noise power wheelchair due to the movement will be reduced, the seat continues reliably movement without being vibration. In this paper, providing an application on the smart phone platform for the convenience of users who are not familiar with how to use electric wheelchairs, they can easily control wheelchairs. Control platform of the smart phone is able to monitor the electric wheelchair in real-time, with regard to pressure prevention, help the slope of the seat to be arbitrarily controlled.

본 논문에서는 ATmega기반의 스마트 제어보드를 이용하여, 지형의 경사로에 따라 실시간으로 전동휠체어의 시트를 제어하는 시스템을 제안한다. 스마트 제어보드에는 자이로 및 가속도 센서와 Tilt센서가 포함되어 있으며, 전동휠체어가 다양한 경사로 지형을 지나갈 때 실시간으로 2개의 센서를 이용하여, 지형을 파악할 수 있도록 구성되었다. 본 논문에서는 정확한 지형을 파악할 수 있도록 자이로 센서와 가속도 센서 기반에 상호보안 필터를 적용하여, 전동휠체어가 이동 중에 출력되는 센서 값의 노이즈를 해결하였다. 이를 기반으로 전동휠체어가 이동시 센서 출력 값의 노이즈로 인하여, 시트가 지속적으로 흔들리지 않고 안정적으로 시트 평행을 유지하는 것을 확인할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 편의를 위해 전동휠체어에 익숙하지 않은 사람들이 쉽게 제어할 수 있도록 스마트 폰 기반의 제어 플랫폼을 제공한다. 스마트 폰의 제어플랫폼은 전동휠체어의 현재 상태를 실시간으로 모니터링 할 수 있으며, 욕창 방지와 관련하여, 시트의 기울기를 임의적으로 제어할 수 있도록 도와준다.
