Our ATAL students have developed a smart, hands-free wheelchair designed to enable movement through eye-blink and muscle signals, bringing technology closer to creating greater independence for people with physical disabilities.
The wheelchair integrates a BioAmp EXG sensor and an eye-blink sensor to detect and interpret the user’s commands. These signals are processed through specially developed software and translated into movement commands, enabling the wheelchair to respond without conventional physical controls.
What makes this innovation especially significant is that it is a full-sized, functional prototype, developed with improved hardware, motors, and control mechanisms to enhance its performance and usability.
Through this project, our students have brought together Physics, electronics, programming, biomedical sensing, and engineering to address a real-world challenge.
At SHIS ATL, we believe innovation is most meaningful when it is driven by empathy, purpose, and the desire to create a positive impact.
From an idea to a working innovation — our students are engineering possibilities for a more inclusive future.
