The conceptual 'Life Knight' ambulance is a different kind of healthcare vehicle that aims to accelerate the care capabilities of professionals when transporting a patient to the hospital.
The vehicle is outfitted with a full hospital within that can be used for quickly administering care to patients in rural areas where disaster may have struck or in developing regions. The expandable design of the vehicle will offer up to 26 wards for performing everything from routine injury care to more serious surgeries, depending on needs. This eliminates the need to drive patients to a traditional hospital to accelerate care capabilities and potentially save more lives.
The conceptual 'Life Knight' ambulance is the design work of professor Baojun Li, Prof. Mingliang Song and Zhifei Tian, and is the winner of the 2019 Red Dot Design Concept Aware.
