Ambulance detection using image processing and neural networks

Ambulance Detection using Image Processing and Neural Network is a vehicle detection and tracking system, which recognizes the vehicle (i.e., Ambulance in this case) amidst the traffic congestion. Due to the fact from past few years, the range of vehicles usage of the road is growing each day that results in traffic congestion, for better management of this traffic this system is useful. Traffic Congestion, as mentioned above, can be observed at an ever-growing pace in countries like India and Thailand, where the roads’ width and length make it impossible to make a separate lane for the emergency vehicle (like that of ambulance); Hence making it hard for the vehicle to pass through the traffic at the earliest possible time. The Ambulance tracking system is activated at the mapped junctions and that program detects the ambulance coming close to it and turns the traffic light to Green for the next 15 seconds. Geocoding is the practice of transforming addresses (like a physical address) to location information (like longitude and latitude) that can be used to locate a label on a map or to mark a grid. They plan to provide ambulances with this software to make it easy to transform addresses into a programmable format for review and retrieval. This data is converted to a system that shows all the crossings it must pass to meet the endpoint.
