Internet of Things (IoT) based Emergency Reporting and Management System using Ubidots and Firebase

Emergencies never come with prior intimation and in real-world scenarios, detecting such emergencies and reporting them is a real challenge. The failure to respond to an emergency may be due to several factors like traffic congestion, lack of awareness of the emergency helpline details or not being in a position to inform because of the trauma people go through during such critical times. The use of Internet of Things based emergency reporting and management system using ubidots and firebase will see a seismic shift in the way emergencies are handled specially in a country like India where traffic plays a big hurdle in providing efficient emergency management. This project contains the proposed system to overcome common problems of having manual intervention while reporting an emergency and managing it. Internet of Things (IoT) can be defined as a system of interrelated computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, objects, animals or people that are provided with unique identifiers and the ability o transfer data over a network without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. Combining the technologies of both Internet of Things (IoT) and the smartphone, we have an application which during emergencies shall help at a faster rate in addition to being easy to use.
