A Switch Triggered Rescue Assistance System for Safety of Women

摘要

In recent years, acts of assault and violence against women are rising at a menacing rate. The exponential increase in assault, violence and attacks against women in the past few years, is posing a threat to the growth and development of women. Defence is not the only measure that can suffice against this increasing abuse. A security solution that creates a sense of safety among women needs to be devised. In instances of attack, it is largely reported that women are immobilized. There is thus, a need of simpler safety solution that can be activated simply by pressing a switch and can instantly send out alerts to the near ones of the victim. In this paper we have designed and implemented such a system in the form of a partial wearable and partial portable system.
