Abstract

In the recent days, one of the significant problems for women is personal safety. According to one of the World Health Organization (WHO) polls, approximately 35% of women are subjected to physical violence and this number has been steadily rising in recent years. Considering this issue, we have proposed devices that provide safety for women in critical situations. Women can use the device, when they sense or feel danger. The idea is to overcome the situation and fear, while enabling quick response and self-defence mechanism at the crucial time. With several sensors, the device has the ability to save women. When a woman feels herself in danger, she must be able to use the alert mechanism, which will report to her parents and to the nearby police station with details of location using GPS. The system would also enable GSM through Raspberry Pi, thereby enabling the live video. Live video would help to identify and witness the intruder and his act. The use of IOT will be very helpful to get the remote information, thereby hel** to reduce crime.
