Abstract

This research focuses on developing a control system to apply in a conventional wheelchair through different technological tools (virtual keyboard, jostick, Neurosky MindWave) to help people with motor disabilities with language problems (communication) and mobilityof different degrees, through the use of hardware and free software. The joystick mobility and the Neurosky MindWave device and communication is carried out together with the manipulation of a mobile device (cellular, Tablet,) using the touch screen, implemented onthe wheelchair for the control of the disabled person, the hardware (Arduino) and software (Xamarin studio, PHP, java) used are open source complying with decree 1014 and code ingenios established in the Republic of Ecuador. It is proposed to implement this system and to offer important advantages over similar ones in terms of cost and easy adaptabilityto any standard wheelchair. In this way, people with disabilities can communicate and mobilize when they need it.
