Abstract - In recent decades the modification is done only

for ordinary people in the car but not for the people who has some disability or are physically handicapped. The only modification is done in the area of wheel chair for handicapped person. The only modification done in wheel chair is that the physically challenged person can operate wheel chair with less effort by himself. But yet there are no modification implemented in car for handicapped person. So that they can easily drive the car and complete their dream of driving the car and also reduce their dependency on other people.

1.1 Problem Statement Due to disability of handicapped persons they cannot drive cars. So the problem of reducing hand effort required for steering should be solved.

Key Words: Joystick, steering system, Joystick operated steering system, Joystick operated car, joystick operated steering for handicap person, controlling steering of car by joystick.

1.2 Objectives 1. 2. 3.

1.INTRODUCTION The aim of this project is to reduce the effort of driving for handicapped person. In this the steering motion of the wheel is replaced by a joystick, which is easy and require less effort.

1.3 Scope 1. 2. 3.

In this project the steering wheel is replaced by the assembly of joystick, control unit, electric motor and gear box. Joystick is operated on resistance phenomenon. It gives signal to control unit which is forwarded to motor. The torque of motor is magnified by using the gear box. The output of the gear box is connected to the steering column.
