Abstract:

Traffic accident deaths are rising due to the lack of response time of ambulance in India. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is one of the solution to reduce the risk. The concept of medical emergency arrived to fill the delay of ambulance with shortest path of travel using a hex copter to reach the patient in fast response to give first aid. Similar to Rescue Emergency Drone, it provides faster and real-time crash site to emergency medical services, thereby helping them to quickly and accurately assess a situation and assist the bystanders to treat the inflicted person. The medical services aiming at locating the accident spots and finding the live status of the person and delivering the medical emergency kit in a short while. Along with manual calculations the estimated time to reach the drone to the spot from any of the nearest hospitals in both rural and urban areas can be done. Thus the live status of the person can be viewed by hospitals using IOT. A video guidance can be done by on-board camera which is fixed in hex copter. This type of a system can save many lives.
