GIAN DELEON TIMOTHY JONES CHRISTOPHER MARTIN ADVISOR/SPONSOR: DR. STAPLETON 2.2 Sensor Glove Controller
2
Background and Motivation Basic Idea: combine sensor technologies with alternative ways of controlling a wheelchair Most, if not all, wheelchairs on the market are limited to joystick controls.
3
Project Overview Goal: build and program a sensor glove to control a miniature wheelchair
4
Glove Overview 4 flex sensors in fingers Accelerometer on top of hand Communicates with chair via Bluetooth
5
Glove Prototype Meant to look more ergonomic Thumbless design allowed for ambidextrous controller Complications with construction led to discarding this version of the glove
6
Chair Overview Board connected to servo motors Moves based on information input from glove Communicates with glove via Bluetooth
7
Planned Ambidextrous Glove Prototype Meant to look more ergonomic Thumbless design allowed for ambidextrous controller Complications with construction led to discarding this version of the glove
8
Planned User Interface A user interface was considered as an add-on to our original project. The user would be able to program their own hand gesture commands and map them to chair movements. The idea was cut due to time constraints and complications with construction of the ambidextrous glove prototype.
