  • Abstract:
  • In an era where women’s safety is an ongoing concern, especially amidst the rising incidents of harassment and violence, conventional safety mechanisms such as mobile applications and emergency helplines have proven to be inadequate during real-time emergencies. Divya Kavach, a smart wearable safety device designed as a culturally acceptable bangle, aims to bridge this critical gap. The project integrates advanced technology into an aesthetically traditional form, providing women with a discreet yet powerful tool for personal protection. The bangle is equipped with features such as GPS for real-time location tracking, GSM modules for sending emergency alerts, a panic button for silent activation, voice-command recognition, heart rate monitoring, and an optional electroshock mechanism for immediate self-defense. Furthermore, it supports dual-mode charging through USB and solar energy, making it especially useful in power-deficient or rural environments. Developed using an Arduino UNO microcontroller and tested under various field conditions, the prototype demonstrated accurate location tracking and swift alert delivery. Divya Kavach presents a socially acceptable, technologically advanced, and scalable solution that addresses the real-time safety needs of women, contributing meaningfully to the field of wearable technology with a social impact.
