MUMBAI, India, July 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541051505 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on May 29, for 'taser technology with embedded sos warning mechanism.'
Inventor(s) include Afrah Meera S; Akshitha S; Dr. V Sheeja Kumari; and Dr Ramya Mohan.
The application for the patent was published on July 11, under issue no. 28/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The Taser with SOS Warning System is an innovative personal safety device that combines the functionality of a traditional Taser with an integrated emergency alert system. Introduced in 1993 as a less-lethal force option for law enforcement, the Taser provides a means of subduing potentially dangerous individuals. 'coupled with GPS technology, which became available for civilian use in the 1980s, and the SOS alarm concept, which originated in the 1940s, this product offers a dualpurpose solution for self-defense and emergency communication. In the event of an attack, the user can activate the SOS feature on the device, which triggers an automatic alert to pre-programmed emergency contacts via call, message, and GPS location. This real-time notification system ensures that help is quickly dispatched, reducing response times and increasing the chances of timely intervention. The Taser with SOS Warning System aims to reduce crime rates and harassment by empowering individuals with both a means of defense and a fast, reliable way to notify loved ones or authorities when they are in danger. It also highlights the potential integration of this technology into public safety programs, showing how it could reduce response times in emergencies and enhance overall security. This research paves the way tor further innovations in personal defense systems by demonstrating the feasibility of multifunctional, user-tiiendly solutions tailored to modern safety challenges. Subsequent efforts will focus on advanced modeling for customized features and expanding the scope of applications in pnblic and personal safety domains."
