The safety of women with iBeacon technology
Abstract
The main motivation of this project is to promote the contribution to the security of women, helping the citizen security, which is a prime need of the hour. The proposed device is an accessible device that is the conscious location and remains connected to the user's phone through a Bluetooth low power signal (BLE). Pressing the button will send an SOS message in the form of MMS, which will capture the victim's current location and send it to emergency contacts, such as the social networking platform or police station. The system will also consist of an Android application (iBeacon) that will be used to obtain important user information such as emergency contacts and will be used to send the SOS. In addition, the incorporation of features such as sending an additional SOS through the use of transport services along with data services. The goal is to increase the chances of being saved in times of distress. The proposed work shows a flexible and inter operable combination of a device and an application that will complement and train citizens and serve as a multi function device.
Introduction
The increasing rate of crimes against women and the elderly has been an alarming concern among citizens around the world. The proposed device is a portable device that provides localization and remains connected to the user's phone through a low-power Bluetooth (BLE) signal. This device can send an SOS message in the form of MMS that will capture the victim's current location and send it to emergency contacts. This system also consists of an Android application that will be used to obtain important information from the user, such as emergency contact.
