Application of Fuzzy Control Technology in a Sonar-Based Obstacle Avoidance Intelligent Wheelchair

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper presents a kind of application system combining fuzzy control technology and ultrasonic obstacle avoidance technology for the intelligent wheelchair (iwheelchair). The system use the ultrasonic measured-distance as the input signal and the output signal is the speed of the iwheelchair to avoid obstacle. The fuzzy controller is designed in Matlab platform and simulated according to the obtained fuzzy control strategy. The fuzzy control technology has been applied successfully in ultrasound obstacle avoidance system for the intelligent wheelchair.
