According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Ensuring personal safety, particularly for women and vulnerable individuals, has become a critical challenge requiring rapid and reliable technological solutions. This paper presents a smart wearable safety bracelet designed to provide real-time protection through location tracking, emergency communication, and integrated deterrence mechanisms. The proposed system incorporates a low-power microcontroller, Global Positioning System (GPS) or assisted Global Navigation Satellite System (A-GNSS), cellular communication module with optional Bluetooth fallback, onboard microphone, rechargeable battery, and a one-touch SOS activation interface. Upon emergency activation, the device generates an encrypted distress message containing real-time location coordinates, device identification, and timestamp information, which is transmitted simultaneously to predefined contacts and emergency services. The system further enables continuous location updates and automatic audio recording for monitoring and evidentiary purposes. A high-intensity visual alert module provides temporary deterrence against potential threats. Additionally, a companion mobile application and cloud infrastructure support device management, alert routing, and secure data storage. The proposed wearable solution offers an independent, portable, and energy-efficient personal safety system aimed at improving emergency response time and enhancing user protection."
