Android-based System for Intelligent Traffic Signal Control and Emergency Call Functionality

Abstract

The aim of the system was to utilize technology to save lives in India by addressing the challenge of transporting patients during emergencies on congested roads. To tackle this problem, we developed two mobile apps - one for users and one for ambulance drivers. The user app requires signup and retrieves their address and location. Similarly, the ambulance driver app also retrieves their location. When the user presses the emergency button, a notification is sent to the ambulance driver via the app. The app then displays the shortest path, and traffic signals along the route are adjusted to facilitate a faster route to the hospital. Overall, our apps were created to aid accident victims in reaching the hospital promptly
