Automotive applications would greatly benefit of multimedia telematic services for many purposes, from tourism and entertainment, to most important issues such as security and traffic management. Within this context, the AIDER system (AIDER is the acronym of Accident Information and Driver Emergency Rescue) is one of the most advanced multimedia mobile services targeted at emergency situations such as road accidents. The AIDER allows the interactive exchange of multimedia data (and in particular, audio, video and biomedical information) between the vehicle and a remote rescue centre, by using several different narrowband radio channels including cellular networks and satellite.

Abstract
Automotive applications would greatly benefit of multimedia telematic services for many purposes, from tourism and entertainment, to most important issues such as security and traffic management. Within this context, the AIDER system (AIDER is the acronym of Accident Information and Driver Emergency Rescue) is one of the most advanced multimedia mobile services targeted at emergency situations such as road accidents. The AIDER allows the interactive exchange of multimedia data (and in particular, audio, video and biomedical information) between the vehicle and a remote rescue centre, by using several different narrowband radio channels including cellular networks and satellite. In this paper an overview of the AIDER architecture is provided, focusing on the advanced video communication system. © 2005 Elsevier B.V.
