This work presents a novel solution for physically challenged individuals, specifically those who rely on wheelchairs for mobility. The proposed solution involves the development of an accelerometer enabled real-time smart wheelchair system for paralyzed individuals. The system utilizes the ADXL345 sensor, an Arduino UNO microcontroller, high torque DC motors, a 20A motor driver circuit, and a 12V, 7Amp battery. The objective of this project is to enhance the mobility and independence of physically challenged or paralyzed individuals by providing them with an easy-to-use and efficient wheelchair control mechanism. The system aims to provide enhanced control and convenience to users, enabling them to operate their wheelchairs more effectively and efficiently. The wheelchair system utilizes Accelerometer technology to establish a wired connection to control the wheelchair
