Background. The subject of research is bionic control methods. The aim of the study is to develop the architecture and algorithmic support of the control system using a bionic approach for the autonomous performance of the assigned tasks.
Materials and methods. To solve the set tasks, the work used methods of recognizing commands given by a disabled person, with the involvement of an artificial intelligence apparatus.
Results. The structure and algorithm of operation of a robotic wheelchair are proposed, the operational control of which is carried out by an onboard computer, and the role of the operator is reduced to setting the goal of movement.
Conclusions. The use of the proposed approaches to the construction of control systems for robotic mechanisms can find application not only in the creation of rehabilitation equipment, but also in the development and design of mobile intelligent robots created to work in a rapidly changing dynamic and life-threatening environment.
