In modern and crowded traffic life, it becomes mandatory to save the human life by reaching the hospital very sooner than possible. This paper explains about the advancement in tracking the ambulance presence amidst the traffic with the usage of GPS tracking system calculating the position of the ambulance from the traffic signal which replaces the RF transmitter receiver circuitry. This paper also retains the use of the image capturing technology available from the base paper (IMPACT OF IMAGE PROCESSING IN SAVING THE HUMAN LIFE BY AUTOMATING TRAFFIC SIGNALS) to identify the presence of the ambulance, thereby changing the signal to green automatically in favour of ambulance.

Abstract


In modern and crowded traffic life, it becomes mandatory to save the human life by reaching the hospital very sooner than possible. This paper explains about the advancement in tracking the ambulance presence amidst the traffic with the usage of GPS tracking system calculating the position of the ambulance from the traffic signal which replaces the RF transmitter receiver circuitry. This paper also retains the use of the image capturing technology available from the base paper (IMPACT OF IMAGE PROCESSING IN SAVING THE HUMAN LIFE BY AUTOMATING TRAFFIC SIGNALS) to identify the presence of the ambulance, thereby changing the signal to green automatically in favour of ambulance.
