The paper proposes the intelligent semi-automated locomoting vehicle rooted by gesture control technology. Aiming smooth locomotion and caring unit for physically challenged persons who find it arduous to move from a place to another and changing posture of body for their regular routines. As various limb movements are prohibited various posture like wheelchair position, stretcher, standing posture are made possible with flexible construction of locomotor assisted by linear actuators. The locomotor is plotted as transmitter unit which senses the gesture recognition of respectable acknowledged part of the body, produces output signal for receiver unit using accelerometer and RF modules. Where the receiver unit receives input RF signals and processes with microcontroller to actuate the vehicle. Intelligent services like heartbeat monitoring system, obstacle detection, GPS tracking module assist the locomotor with self-monitoring the health of the user.
