In case of accidents during explosions and firearm injuries it is essential to use tourniquet in order to overcome the severe injuries and blood loss. There are a few essential things to consider when using a tourniquet. If it is not tightened well to arrest the blood loss, it continues and the injured person's life becomes very dangerous. If more pressure is given , and if it is not relaxed and squeezed hardly, it may cause serious issues. The purpose of this product is to produce a intelligent tourniquet system that can successfully arrest the bleeding by automatically providing the appropriate pressure to the limb, where it is affected to stop excessive bleeding in wounds. The developed system will be largely used in, first aid kits for vehicles, ambulances, emergency services for hospitals, fire trucks, first aid organizations, risky workplaces and so many civilian areas.
