Millions of children and elderly individuals go missing each year across the globe. Senior citizens suffering from dementia or Alzheimer's tend to wander and are unable to return home. Children get lost in crowded areas like malls, fairs, or railway stations.Women, especially in unsafe environments, face harassment, abductions, or emergency situations where quick help is unavailable. Current solutions such as police assistance, public announcements, or expensive GPS trackers are slow, dispersed, or out of reach for the majority of families. This void makes families anxious and vulnerable.
Proposed Solution
SafeLink: Universal Women, Child & Elderly Finder Network is an inexpensive, technology-based safety system. It employs inexpensive wearable bands/tags with QR/NFC codes, Bluetooth, and optional low-power GPS. When an individual gets lost, individuals around them can read the code or pick up the Bluetooth signal through a mobile app, which will send an immediate alert to their family. Real-time GPS tracking and SOS alerts are available through premium membership.
Key Features
Affordable device: ₹600–₹1000 per unit, making it widely accessible.
Premium model: Free basic alerts; GPS/SOS advanced features for ₹50–₹100/month.
Community safety: Anybody with the app can help out, creating a global network of support.
Offline mesh networking: Devices can forward signals using nearby smartphones when internet is low.
Target Audience
Families with elderly (particularly dementia/Alzheimer's patients).
Parents of children in the age group 2–12.
Women who need reliable safety in travel, work, or daily life.
Schools, hospitals, and old-age homes.
Event organizers, malls, and transportation centers.
Business Model
Direct product sales (wearable bands/tags).
Subscription plans for premium tracking features.
Schools, hospitals, old-age homes,women's hostels, malls, and NGOs can buy many devices in bulk and give them to children or elderly people under their care.
CSR/Govt. tie-ups to subsidize devices for low-income families.
Innovation
In contrast to high-cost GPS-only trackers, this product employs QR + Bluetooth + GPS for low cost, broad applicability, and dependability. Its community-driven safety network supports global scalability.
Impact
Avoids life-threatening incidents by rapidly reconnecting families.
Reduces emotional trauma and social risks.
Can become a global standard for safety, similar to Aadhaar but for individual security.
