SMART AMBULANCE GUIDANCE SYSTEM

Increase in population has increased the number of automobiles leading to a steep increase in traffic. Often Traffic jams occur due to the increase in the number of vehicles on the road. An ambulance or any emergency vehicle stuck in traffic is unable to move due to poor traffic signal control. This project aims at providing a solution to the above problem by alerting or controlling the traffic signal before the ambulance reaches the traffic signal using the concept of Internet of Things(IoT). This system uses a central server to control the traffic controllers. The traffic signal controller is implemented using Arduino UNO. The ambulance driver uses a web application to request the traffic controller to make the signal green in which the ambulance is present. A low-cost system which can be implemented throughout the city thereby reducing the number of deaths due to traffic situations has been aimed at.
