Different Destinations: Digital Twins Enabled Ambulance Path Planning

Abstract

This paper proposes two aspects of care regarding ambulance routing to offer the best treatment to patients possible. We attach a great deal of importance to the time on the road and the treatment offered in different hospitals. With the help of the cloud and digital twins, we set out to determine the optimal hospital and the best route for its ambulance. As in the figure below, the cloud can gather the information to do route planning, and digital twins connected with reward mechanisms are able to mitigate congestion when an ambulance drives on the road. We believe that our project can save substantial amounts of the patient’s time and cut down on errors that may be caused by people. We sincerely hope that every patient can benefit a lot from our project, which means that they are less likely to lose their life when falling ill.
