Abstract

People who use wheelchairs as a device of displacement due to their mobility limitations are repeatedly restricted by architectural and social factors. It is necessary to grant users greater autonomy and independence and the new developments in technological devices being an alternative to improve their lives. The project was executed in three phases, in the first phase a study was made of the state of the art of omnidirectional platforms and of their mathematical modeling by means of the kinematic equations of an omnidirectional mobile platform, in the second phase the electronic system was designed and developed, finally in the third phase it covers programming, development and remote interaction between a mobile application with the wheelchair. An electronic system is developed for the remote control of an omnidirectional platform which is adaptable to a wheelchair to grant it holonomic movements.
