    In a significant step toward leveraging technology for social impact, students from the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at East Point College of Engineering & Technology (EPCET), Bengaluru, have developed an innovative “Smart Women Security System Using IoT” - a compact wearable safety device designed to provide real-time emergency assistance and improve women’s personal safety.

    Developed by students Abhinav Mallappa Radder, Abhishek Gowda MS, Madhan M S, and Rekha S under the guidance of Dr Kesavan M V, the project integrates multiple technologies, including GSM, GPS, IoT sensors, cloud connectivity, and health monitoring systems into a single intelligent safety platform.

    The wearable prototype is designed to detect emergency situations such as sudden falls, abnormal movement, unsafe surroundings, or distress scenarios, and instantly send SMS alerts with live GPS location to family members or emergency contacts. Unlike many existing safety applications that rely heavily on smartphones and internet connectivity, the system is capable of functioning through GSM-based communication, ensuring better reliability during emergencies.

    The project incorporates several advanced safety features, including real-time GPS tracking and GSM-based emergency alerts that instantly share the user’s live location during distress situations. The device is also equipped with accelerometer sensors capable of detecting sudden falls and unusual movements, while an integrated MQ-3 sensor helps identify the presence of alcohol in nearby surroundings. In addition, the system monitors vital health parameters such as heart rate and body temperature and uploads the data to the Blynk cloud platform for remote access. To further enhance safety, the prototype includes a camera activation feature for evidence collection during emergencies, along with a low-voltage self-defence deterrent mechanism designed for immediate response situations.

    The prototype was successfully tested under controlled conditions and demonstrated reliable GSM connectivity, GPS accuracy, emergency alert transmission, and effective sensor-based monitoring. The students noted that while the device has shown promising results at the prototype stage, additional real-world testing and regulatory compliance would be required before commercial deployment.

    Speaking about the project, Dr Manimozhi I, Head of the Department, CSE, EPCET, said: “This project reflects our institution’s commitment to fostering innovation in socially relevant domains. Women’s safety is a critical issue, and the integration of technology-driven solutions like this device demonstrates the potential of student-led research to make a real-world impact.”

    Commenting on the project, Dr Kesavan M V, Associate Professor, CSE, EPCET and Project Guide, said: “The team has successfully combined multiple technologies including GPS, GSM, alcohol detection, and health monitoring, into a compact prototype aimed at enhancing women’s safety. The results achieved so far are promising and showcase the students’ technical capabilities and dedication toward solving real-world challenges.”
