Monitoring patients in realtime from a remote location, video call facility with speedy internet connection, plus more is available with the launch of India's first Fifth-Generation or 5G network-enabled ambulance on Saturday.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched 5G services in today at India Mobile Congress in Delhi. The 5G services started with India's No.2 operator Bharti Airtel rolling out services in eight cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Varanasi and Bengaluru.
Reliance Jio, the country's top operator with most subscribers, is to launch its services in four metros sometime this month, while Vodafone Idea Ltd, the third operator, has so far not indicated any fixed timeline for its 5G rollout.
"Whole point of a connected ambulance is not a new thing. The fundamental difference is that what goes inside the ambulance is now enhanced. So earlier you could not put in a defibrillator (a machine that uses an electric current to make someone's heart beat), you couldn't put a patient monitoring system. At the most you could set up a WhatsApp call and the doctor could take a look at the patient with a mobile video. All that has changed," Shankar Srinivasan from Cisco Systems told NDTV.
