But in the event that you or a loved one need to be transported via EMS, you want it to be well stocked and safe. Teams participating in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2TPXhe8\">SOLIDWORKS xDesign SAE Challenge<\/a> have been tasked with designing one of three rescue vehicles of the future, and the ambulance is one that could be most realistically implemented.<\/p>\n<p>What are the issues facing modern ambulances? How are current ambulances designed? Publications like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emsworld.com\/\">EMS World<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jems.com\/\">JEMS<\/a> are great resources, where real emergency professionals write articles and share information about issues they\u2019re facing with their equipment. How do you put patient and operator safety first, while also designing a space, fast, accessible, and easy to drive vehicle?<\/p>\n<p>You can take a look at how far ambulances have come, and your SAE team can design the ambulance of the future!<\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<div class=\"entry-content-asset\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ambulance suspension development film (approx 1977)\" width=\"1140\" height=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ucwsTYXcc7E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Not signed up for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/2TPXhe8\">SOLIDWORKS xDesign SAE Challenge<\/a>?
