Abstract: Now-a-day, a concept of smart cities is arising more, and developments towards it are going on. The concept of smart cities is to provide smart and essential services to all the people, distributing equally for both rural and urban areas. Smart cities essentially require the technologies that can provide smart service in various aspects. Robotic systems are one of the key solutions for such requirements. The main concern of our paper is towards Medical Service. Time is a critical issue when dealing with people who experience sudden accidents, cardiac arrest, asthma, and many such health issues. The First Aid is a necessary option at that moment of time. Using GPS & GSM based tracker is used to send details to the hospital or doctor using GSM Technology. We can find out the location of the ambulance. Hence, we have designed and developed the robotic ambulance, which brings along a First Aid Kit in a sudden event of health care and facilitates various modes of operation from manual to autonomous functioning to save someone’s lives in smart cities.
