Sažetak

Currently, the evolution of wireless technologies has allowed researchers to design communication systems where vehicles are used as first entities to participate in the communication networks using the infrastructure present in cities. In this paper, the development of a new application under the Android operating system as an effort to improve road safety is presented. A new concept, such as Smart Cities includes intelligent traffic management in which data from the Traffic Information Centre infrastructures could be reachable at any point. The goal of this proposal is to manage the traffic lights from inside of the emergency vehicles (as ambulance, fire truck, etc.) in order to minimize the response time in case of an emergency, therefore, reducing the stop time in the intersections due to red lights. Presented in this work is the development of an application for the management of traffic lights, the objective is to provide the control to drivers over the traffic light in the emergency route. Finally we discuss the requirements for the real development of the application. This project obtained the best prototype award in the regional and national science fair in Mexico ExpoCiencias 2013 with which the project was prize winning to participate in the London International Youth Science 2014 (LIYSF).
