The concept of an intelligent multifunctional robot-voice-controlled wheelchair (MFRW) with a manipulator is presented in this paper. This device will help solve three of the most important problems of handicap people. First, the communication between the master and the MFRW is made by speach, the natural way of communication, thus will benefit people with no other means of communication with the machine. Second, the unlimited maneuverability in any direction along with the ability to defect and report obstacles a long the capacity to make decisions to avoid a dangerous situation are features of the MFRW. Third, and most important, a manipulator is installed to help the handicapped in daily routines ie. opening doors and feeding. The advances in computer technology make the system cost effective and highly feasible.
