Internet of things architecture for a smart passenger-car robotic first aid system

摘要

Health emergencies occur in passenger cars where victims do not have immediate access to either layperson or professional, proper medical services, resulting in deterioration of their health or death. Installation of a robotic first aid system for passenger car occupants has been proposed. This research is part of a larger work of designing the system and identifies the existing hardware and software automotive infrastructure that the robotic first aid system can functionally use. These resources are reviewed in categories of sensing, connectivity, data analysis and information exchange, which form the internet of things. Consequently, the system's design for internet of things mechanical requirements are identified in sensing. Finally, a preliminary framework for the system's internet of things infrastructure is established to facilitate the development of a smart robot.
