42000 people die each day in India because emergency services aren’t able to reach the patients. With more than 0.65mn villages, out of which 40% don’t have all weather connectivity, problem is really severe in rural India. We aim to develop an air ambulance that can fly within an operating range of 50-100 km, is operationally economical, have a low noise signature, and is certified with the highest airworthiness standards for use in healthcare emergencies, rescue missions and casualty evacuation. The air ambulance is planned to be equipped with state-of-the-art emergency care delivery systems for patient stabilization, resuscitation, monitoring and audio/video telecommunication with a healthcare specialist.
While the development of an air ambulance in key technology areas is done in a collaborative manner with participation from Industry, Startups, Government and Academia, this collaboration will also help in the creation of airspace and unmanned traffic management communication standards, development of vertiport infrastructure, Policy maturity and technology breakthroughs in the area of electric propulsion, advanced materials, communication and display technologies, Internet of Things, etc.
