Abstract :
In this paper iGoggle guided wheel chair is developed to assist the patients who are paralyzed below the neck. This iris controlled wheelchair makes use of eye movement for the control of wheelchair. Infra-red sensors are used to detect the iris movement and control the movements of wheelchair. Infra-red sensor senses the movement of eye ball and control the movement of wheel chair in different directions. The performance of iGoggle wheel chair is evaluated by measuring the eye movements.
