IoT Sensor Network for Smart City Accident Rescue
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In smart cities, accidents often occur suddenly and unpredictably, making it challenging for rescuers to arrive promptly, which affects the efficiency of rescue operations and increases potential losses.
Innovation Solution
A method and system utilizing the Internet of Things (IoT) for accident rescue, involving a sensor network platform to monitor areas, determine the type of accident, and send rescue reminder information to rescuers, including route planning to ensure timely arrival.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of time
If traditional accident response methods are used, then rescuers can respond to accidents, but the response time is delayed and rescue efficiency is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by deploying sensor networks and monitoring systems in advance across the target area. These systems are pre-configured to detect accidents automatically, so when an accident occurs, the system can immediately identify and respond to it without waiting for manual reporting or discovery, thereby reducing rescue response time and improving rescue efficiency.
2Measurement precision
If manual accident detection and response methods are used, then rescuers can handle accidents, but the accuracy and speed of accident identification are insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The system replaces manual mechanical detection methods with automated sensor networks and electronic monitoring systems. These electronic systems continuously collect data from multiple sensors (video, audio, environmental sensors) and use automated analysis to identify accidents, providing both higher accuracy and faster response compared to human observers, thus improving accident detection accuracy and reducing identification time simultaneously.

AI summary
Disclosed is a method and a system for accident rescue in a smart city based on the Internet of Things. The method is implemented by a rescue management platform, including: obtaining monitoring information of a target area by a sensor network platform; judging whether an abnormal accident occurs in the target area based on the monitoring information; determining an accident type of the abnormal accident when the abnormal accident occurs in the target area; generating rescue reminder information based on the accident type, wherein the rescue reminder information includes a rescue mode of the abnormal accident; and sending the rescue reminder information to a rescuer. The system includes a rescue management platform, a sensor network platform, and an object monitoring platform. The method may be executed after the computer instructions stored in the computer-readable storage medium are read.
