Robotic Automated External Defibrillator Ambulance for Emergency Medical Service in Smart Cities

摘要

Robotic systems are one of the key solutions for providing smart services. Time is a critical issue when dealing with people who experience a sudden cardiac arrest that unfortunately could die due to inaccessibility of the emergency treatment. Therefore, an immediate treatment using Automated External Defibrillator (AED) must be administered to the victim within a few minutes after collapsing. Hence we have designed and developed the Ambulance Robot, shortened as Ambubot, which brings along an AED in a sudden event of cardiac arrest and facilitates various modes of operation .The prototype with biomedical sensors are used for monitoring the patient health continuously, the location of the patient can also be tracked in case of emergency via gsm.
