Smart Accident Detection System using ESP8266 that stores accident data on a cloud server and sends it to nearby hospitals for Emergency Patient Care Service.

Smart Accident Detection and Emergency Care Services

Basic information from hospitals is taken, to register them to the platform through a website. The built system can be used as a very foundation and a first step towards building a smart city, with smart healthcare and smart transportation systems. This Accident detection system can be installed in any car and it will detect accidents on its own, and if an accident is detected then it sends the location details which are stored in the cloud, using a cloud database to store these details so that it can be accessed by anyone who is authorized to read this data, i.e. to make it a distributed system. The server then fetches this information from the cloud and sends it to the hospitals, based on their proximity to the accident site. This system is not only for hospitals, if there are individuals who are willing to help this cause, they can enable their location on the website, and according to the coordinates of their current location, the website will alert them of any accidents in the nearby area. This will help to make the process of sending an ambulance very efficient, as the details will only be sent to hospitals that are registered to the service and people close to the accident site.
