Safe Sole Distress Alarm System for Female Security Using IoT

Abstract

The paper presents development of a sole for protection of female using Arduino microcontroller which is named as ‘SAFE SOLE’. The research goal of safe sole is to develop a safety device/tool for females in the event they might face any danger. The advantages of automaticity of safe sole are hands-free user independence; it uses GPS and GSM to ping user’s location automatically. The device is programmed in such a way that it recognizes defined movements as tapping forcefully three times on ground or any abnormal/vigorous movement/gait of user instantaneously and pings the distress signal and the location to relevant authorities and saved contacts, and additionally taking countermeasures—triggering of siren. In view of this, aforementioned system is a source of developing a product for general population which helps in maintaining the safety of the user by eliminating the involvement of user to initiate any procedural activities against any situation which user might feel in danger.
