Abstract
Several thousands of people die day to day due to the time lag taken by the Ambulance service to reach the accident spot. This happens due to traffic jam, congestion in the city. A prototype of an emergency flying air ambulance or an ambulance drone which can reach the fatal cases faster than a normal ambulance which saves time is designed and it also measures the different health parameters using its measuring devices. When a phone call is given to the emergency number, the emergency operator tracks the location and navigate using global positioning system. The ambulance drone enters the scene in the instant time and real time commands are provided by the operator. The drone consist of a mini patient monitoring system which comprises of variant sensors which can be conveniently attached to the victim body and the important parameters is measured and it is immediately sent to the ambulance as well as to the nearby hospital using global positioning system and ZIGBEE. The particular result helps the paramedics as well as the doctors to evaluate the situation quicker with better diagnostic and therapeutic choices. Therefore, the goal is to develop an all purpose medical toolkit that can be flawn to any crisis situation and it is used to give the actual time situation results to the ambulance and the hospital team so that they will be ready to serve to the needs of the patients. This prototype helps to support the routine ambulance rather than replacing the normal ambulance
