Abstract

Road traffic has become the major challenge in current urban cities, which made inconvenient for ambulance if it is carrying any emergency patient. The ambulance has to wait for clearing the traffic, which may take several minutes to hours sometimes. Due to this ambulance reaches hospital with much delay, and the there may be condition that patient undergoes hazardous problems or may die. The embedded technology has been used to avoid such road traffic congestion by controlling road traffic signal which automatically turns the red signal to green whenever the ambulance reaches near to traffic light control. The system also monitors the patient health present in ambulance and maintains two way communication with the concerned doctor in hospital. It also opens the hospital gate automatically whenever the ambulance reaches the hospital.
