Project Proposal: Women's Safety Smart Jewelry
- Title : "SafeWear: Discreet Smart Jewelry for Women's Safety"
- Problem Statement
Women's safety is a serious concern all over the world. A lot of women experience harassment, stalking, or threats, particularly while traveling or commuting alone. Current solutions in the form of mobile safety applications, pepper sprays, or panic buttons in the phone are not ideal: they take time and physical access, which might not be available during real emergencies. The delay makes these devices less effective and exposes women to danger. What is needed is a "discreet, instant-access, and effective safety device" that can be used by women without arousing attention.
- Proposed Solution
The concept is to create"Smart Safety Jewelry"—wearable devices like rings, pendants, or bracelets with concealed SOS features. A simple press or gesture activates the following functionalities:
- Live GPS tracking: with emergency contacts and local authorities.
- Audio/video recording: for evidence gathering.
- Haptic feedback (vibration): to acknowledge alert activation.
- Optional: voice activation ("Help Me!") for hands-free emergency.
Ride-sharing integration for travel safety.
- Justification
This approach is more "practical and convenient"than mobile applications since it does away with having to unlock a phone during anxious situations. Jewelry is subtle, ever-present, and acceptable to be worn. Through the integration of technology in clothing, women are made safe without the loss of convenience or style.
- Data Structures / Technologies Used
- GPS & Cloud Servers → to store and send live location.
- Hash Tables→ for rapid storage and retrieval of emergency contacts.
- Graphs→ for associating user's location to the closest police station or help center.
- IoT with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) → to pair jewelry with smartphones.
- AI (optional) → for voice recognition ("Help Me" trigger).
- Expected Outcomes
- Women have quicker, more consistent access to assistance in crises.
- Families are reassured regarding the safety of loved ones.
- Faster notification to authorities decreases response times.
- Social impact: gives women more self-confidence and autonomy in their daily lives.
