WOMEN SAFETY DEVICE WITH ELECTRIC SHOCK

Abstract: Women safety is an essential issue due to the rising crimes against women these days. To help resolve this issue we propose a GPS based women safety system that has dual security features. This device can not just be used by women when in distress but also by children when their travel modes are sans elders. For elderly people with issues like Alzheimer's this device can turn out to be very useful for them as well as the families. This device sends the current location of the woman/child/elderly to the family members and concerned authorities in case of any harassment faced or if in any sort of trouble. The device also has a panic button which is an in-built 400kV electric shock generator, which upon pressing will knock the assaulter down due to a sudden shock but without any fatality. The device is made using an AVR microcontroller, a GPS module, a GSM module and a high voltage generator.
