Hey, very nice site. I came across this on Google, and I am stoked that I did. I will definitely be coming back here more often. Wish I could add to the conversation and bring a bit more to the table, but am just taking in as much info as I can at the moment. Thanks for sharing.

Incorporate a mercury tilt switch as fail safe. There tilt switches with 4 poles and single poles.

Hi Mani,

An autonomous wheelchair... That raises questions on safety with me. Have you thought about how your daughter could switch off the device when it fails?

It's a very ambitious project, which will probably take longer than the PSOC Smarter Life challenge. I would love to see some updates during your build / design!

It looks like a good design to upgrade her mobility.

Any thoughts yet on how to keep the user interface simple and easy to use?
