The system has two sub-controllers which are the voice controller and the head tilt controller. The system aims to help quadriplegic, handicapped, elderly and paralyzed patients to control a robotic wheelchair using voice commands and head movements instead of a traditional joystick controller. The multi-input design makes the system more flexible to adapt to the available body signals. The low-cost design is taken into consideration as it allows more patients to use this system. %L 004 %9 theses %9 Text %9 Hochschulschrift %R 10.18453/rosdok_id00002014 %U http://rosdok.uni-rostock.de/resolve/urn/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2018-0008-2 %U https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-diss2018-0008-2 %U https://d-nb.info/1293651346/34 %U https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00002014
