Abstract
This paper investigates the potential of an early warning system to warn drivers of emergency service vehicles (ESV) prior to their arrival as a suitable replacement for sirens mounted on these vehicles. In this paper, a proof-of-concept system, with the intention of developing a full-scale system for widespread implementation is developed resulting in a reduction of noise pollution caused by sirens. The system was tested by modelling in small-scale using remote controlled (RC) cars and smart traffic lights to evaluate the system and its viability for the future. This paper achieves a working prototype and concludes that the system is viable. Although global positioning system (GPS) is inaccurate for a small-scale system, accuracy is within the GPS specifications and should not impact a full-scale implementation.
