        abstract = {The Health Saving Chip (HSC) is a small, smart embedded system designed to transform vehicle accident analysis and emergency response after an accident. Effective interventions and legal clarity are still hampered by the lack of contextual ev- idence and delays in notifying authorities, despite advancements in automotive safety. A camera, GPS, GSM, microcontroller, and sensor array are all combined into one platform by the suggested HSC module. This system sends out emergency alerts with precise geolocation information, records real-time footage, and detects crash events on its own. In addition to facilitating thorough post- event investigations, the capacity to store and timestamp visual evidence guarantees faster reaction times. The HSC provides a major advantage over standalone safety devices because it is made for remote deployment.Utilizing low-power components and the Arduino development environment, the HSC’s architecture prioritizes efficiency and modularity to guarantee functionality even in situations of power outages. Tests conducted in simulated crash environments showed a location accuracy of within ±3.2 meters, an average SMS alert latency of 4.1 seconds, and a detection sensitivity of over 95 Percent. Future developments include the integration of electronic health records (EHRs), 5G data transmission, and AI-driven crash classification. The HSC stands out as a flexible solution with the potential to significantly lower accident-related fatalities and improve road safety infrastructure by enabling quicker emergency responses, improving crash forensics, and supporting intelligent transport systems.},
