With the increase of population aging, chronic diseases and accidental injuries, more and more people are facing the plight of diminished or even lost walking ability. As a kind of mobile service robot, the smart wheelchair has strong environmental adaptability, smooth motion control and friendly human-computer interaction experience, and is an indispensable tool in rehabilitation engineering and elderly assistance engineering, which has important research value and social significance. In this paper, the system structure framework of the multi-function smart wheelchair and the specific technical scheme of each module are formulated based on the modular design idea, and the intelligent control hardware platform with Arduino UNO controller as the core is built to complete the control software writing, and an intelligent wheelchair for the elderly and disabled guardianship is designed. This multi-function smart wheelchair combined with IoT technology can realize distance navigation, obstacle avoidance, medication reminder, sign measurement, remote monitoring, GPS positioning, and upload information through OneNET cloud platform, which can view the location of the wheelchair and the safety status of the elderly from the map in real time in the cell phone APP and PC backstage, in order to improve the control and monitoring capability of the wheelchair.
