The main aim of our project is to design and develop a wheel chair for paralysed people which may be highly suitable for persons is paralysed. In India the number of paralysed individuals is increasing every year. Mobility aids are useful for patients for transportation and a replacement for walking especially in indoor and outdoor environment. Wheelchairs are the most commonly used medical equipment for the transportation of paralysed patients. Understanding the various issues regarding the mobility equipment and introducing a better design will be an asset for the medical field and a helping hand for paralysed individuals. There is a need for a wheelchair to facilitate the disabled patient’s mobility and to provide novel medical equipment for use in the Indian hospitals. Hence this project is selected and designed with the basic requirements and the fabrication part is carried out with almost care. The project we fabricated can act as a conventional wheel chair and can be moved automatically and also can be acted as a push back seat with the help of simple toggle switches.
