Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to physical items that are equipped with sensors, processing power, software, and other technologies, and that communicate with other devices and systems over the Internet or other communication networks[1]. At least once in their lives, an estimated 736 million women, or almost one-third of the world's population, have been victims of intimate partner violence, non-partner sexual assault, or both. Abuse affects many women, children, and even infants. Approximately one out of every ten girls under the age of 20 have been forced to engage in sex or other sexual actions[2].

Technology is the most effective means of resolving this issue. As a result, we create this to save and protect women and children during a crisis. The youngsters who are the victims of this assault are the driving force behind this endeavour. This paper discusses a safe and secure electronic system for a woman that includes an Arduino controller and sensors such as a temperature LM35 sensor, a flex sensor, a MEMS accelerometer, a pulse rate sensor, and a sound sensor. This project includes a buzzer, LCD, GSM, and GPS. When the lady is in danger, the device detects bodily data such as heart rate, temperature change, victim movement using a flex sensor and MEMS accelerometer, and the victim's voice using a sound sensor. When the sensor passes a certain threshold, the device activates and uses the GPS module to track the victim's whereabouts. The victim's location is sent to the registered contact number via the GSM module[3].

The goal of this article is to provide an SMS-enabled communication medium between a child's wearable and his or her parent. To check with the content including the continuous exact area of the child, the parent can transmit a content, area, temperature, UV, alert buzz. The application requires initial registration as well as the user's emergency contact information, which they ask to update regularly. The dynamic GPS Tracking PubNUb's channel is turned on to view the user's location on a map if the user is travelling to another area. When the SOS button is touched, an alarm message is delivered through SMS that includes the user's location and a help message. The user receives access to first-aid information as well as a toll-free helpline[4].

The integrated Child Safety wearable device is tested to ensure that it meets the System's goals. After the components have been integrated, the interaction between them is tested. The resulting results are examined and verified. As a result, the system, as well as the user interface, is complete. The Child Safety device has the potential to be a leading IoT Smart product. It is a safe option for anyone even women to use. However, it is mostly for parents who are concerned about their child's safety. It utilizes several Internet of things ( IoT like GSM, GPS Sensor, Alarm Buzzer, and others to provide them with real-time position information. These devices have a lot more Arduino modules, including the Lilypad Arduino, which can be sewn into fabrics.
