Abstract :
An automatic alarm device for traffic accidents is introduced in this paper. It can automatically detect a traffic accident, search for the spot and then send the basic information to first aid center within two seconds covering geographical coordinates, the time and circumstances in which a traffic accident takes place. By means of satellite navigation system, first aid rescuers can accurately locate the place with maximum error controlled by 10 meters, so that they can save the injured people as soon as possible.
