IoT Based Traffic Management System for Ambulances

Abstract

Lack of efficient traffic control can lead to the loss of thousands of lives due to ambulance not being able to reach the hospital in time. Also, with the current annual growth of Vehicles being around 11% while the annual road extension remaining around 4% in developing countries such as India, the problem is further worsening. So, to deal with this problem the paper presents a novel, easy toimplement alternative for traffic management during emergency situations requiring only three main devices: Arduino UNO, GPS neo 6M and SIM 900A.
