Hunter's comment
Brazil based company HOOBOX Robotics has come up with a wheelchair that utilizes AI to control a motorized wheelchair though 9 facial expressions.
The AI technology has been developed by Intel and it is able to perform movement related actions on sensing gestures like smiling, kissing, and raising your eyebrows etc.
With the help of a companion app, one can configure the gestures against the preferred movements.

this should be the main idea of any wheelchair cause sometimes i wonder how those with a paralyzed spine control there wheel chair
$3600 seems to be very high to me ($300 monthly for 12 months) for disabled people, though the product is definitely going to bring betterment for them, who cannot drive a motorized wheelchair using their hands now. May be only a few can afford this.
Yes, the amount is a bit on the higher side but I feel it would come down soon as more companies come with similar offerings.
