An electric wheelchair is a wheelchair that uses electric motor rather than manual power for functioning. Electric wheelchairs are useful for those who cannot use manual wheelchairs or who need to use wheelchairs for considerable long distance. These can be usually used by people who are physically challenged and also senior citizens with problems related to mobility. Design of a wheelchair consists of the following elements: battery, drive system, controller, and seat. The electric motors of these chairs are usually powered by 12-80 ampere per hour of rechargeable deep-cycle batteries. Some users are not able to use hand controllers and therefore, various other options are made available, for instance, sip and puff controllers, which works by blowing into the sensor.
