Design Process of an Affordable Smart Robotic Crutch for Paralyzed Patients

The research work is to suggest a smart multifunctional Robotic Crutch which is designed for Cripple or Physically disabled people for instant object detection purposes. It is a robotic crutch designed for the movement of cripple or physically disabled persons. Crutches help to transfer weight from the legs to the upper body. The crutch can be attached to the both sides of the user and help the user to move. The proposed model enables the user to control the crutch with the manual switching device. This crutch can detect the object around the user while moving. After detecting the object, the high torque gear motor will be automatically stopped. Moreover, typically people who have disabilities or injuries, or older adults who are at increased risk of falling, to reduce user fall and instant object detection purposes for physically disabled people, there was no Robotics Crutch introduced in the past. The lighting feature of this crutch will help the user to move during the night. A GPS tracking device has added as an extra feature to detect the exact position of disabled people by the family members. The proposed outcome of the project is to give the proper and efficient support to the physically disabled people by helping them to move and detect the user's exact position.
