Enhancing Mobility for Crawling Individuals using HLPR Chair
The smart assistive chair is a groundbreaking solution designed to enhance the quality of life for individuals with mobility challenges. It integrates a range of advanced features, including heartbeat detection, pressure analysis, body temperature monitoring, and object detection, to provide comprehensive health management and safety. The heartbeat detection ensures real-time monitoring of the user’s cardiovascular health, while pressure sensors prevent pressure ulcers by alerting users when they need to change position. Body temperature monitoring detects any fluctuations that may indicate health issues, and the object detection system helps users navigate their environment safely by identifying obstacles in their path. Additionally, a tablet reminder system helps users stay on track with medication adherence and daily tasks. All data collected by the chair’s sensors is transmitted to a cloud platform for remote monitoring by caregivers or healthcare providers, allowing for proactive health interventions. The chair’s design promotes both comfort and mobility, with powered wheels for independent movement and ergonomic support for posture and stability. This innovative assistive technology not only empowers users with greater independence and safety but also supports their overall health and well-being, making it a significant advancement in assistive devices. The objective of the proposed work in the document is to design a smart assistive chair that enhances the mobility and quality of life for individuals with mobility impairments, specifically those who crawl. The chair integrates health monitoring, safety features, and task management into a single system.
