Introduction and Background
• One of the most profound aftermaths of evolving technologies in this
modern era is rapidly increasing vehicular counts.
• Traffic congestion has become a serious problem in most countries around
the world.
• Moreover, the rate of road expansion is just one-third the vehicular growth
rate in countries like India, which further worsens the problem.
• Due to increased traffic, there has been an increase in traffic jams, which
has caused a problem for ambulances in moving patients to the appropriate
destinations on time in case of emergency.
• Statistically, it has been observed that more than 20% patients requiring
urgent medical attention die on their way to the hospital because of
delays.

WORKING
• Input Source(camera): This is the source of the input data used for ambulance detection.
It could be a live video feed from a camera or a recorded video.
• Video Preprocessing: The input video data often requires preprocessing to enhance the
quality and extract relevant information. This stage may involve operations such as noise
reduction, image stabilization, and image enhancement
• Object Detection: In this stage, an object detection algorithm is applied to identify
potential objects in the video frames for this approach object detection is using deep
learning-based models s YOLO used. The algorithm scans the frames and generates
bounding boxes around potential objects.
• Ambulance Verification: In some cases, additional verification steps are performed to
reduce false positives. For example, the system may check for specific features or patterns
that are unique to ambulances, such as flashing lights, siren sounds, or distinct color
patterns. This stage helps increase the accuracy of ambulance detection.
• Output Display/Action: The final stage involves displaying the output to the user or taking
appropriate actions based on the detection results. activating audible alarms, or
triggering automated response systems.

Methodology
• THE PROPOSED SYSTEM AND HARDWARE USED
• Descriptions of the hardware components are provided below. In addition to the
above-mentioned, the system also includes subcomponent named Traffic Control
Room. The traffic control room will help the ambulance to reach its destination on
time by clearing the route for the ambulance and by changing the traffic signals
whenever and wherever needed.
• HARDWARE COMPONENTS USED
• 1. Raspberry Pi
• 2. Camera
• 3. GPS Module
