Abstract
Nowadays, the road accidents in modern urban areas are increased to uncertain level. In highly populated countries like India, more than 410 people get swooped up every day. A leading cause of the global burden of public health and fatalities is road accidents. The loss of human life due to accident is to be avoided. There is no technology in current times for detection of accident. Reaching of ambulance to the accident location is mostly delayed due to the conjested traffic that increases the chance of victim death. To reduce loss of life or save life of person due to accidents and reduce the time taken by ambulance to reach the hospital, there is a need of system which needs to come into force in our daily lives. To bar loss of human life due to accidents, we introduce a scheme called automatic accident rescue system (AARS). There is an automatic detection of accident by crash sensors in the vehicle. A GPS module in the vehicle will send the location coordinates of the accident using IoT platform to central unit which will notify and send an ambulance from the nearest hospital in the vicinity to the accident spot. This scheme is fully automated; thus, it finds the accident spot, helping to reach the hospital in time. This system can help in reducing the loss of lives of human which happen by the accident.
