        abstract = {Women around the world continue to face the serious issue of physical harassment and assault. Ensuring their safety remains a major challenge, as cases of violence and abuse against women and girls are rising every day.
A self-defense module designed for women’s safety, like a smart wearable device, can offer a reliable technological solution. While we may not be able to completely change society overnight, we can certainly use modern advancements to enhance security and protection for women.
Many mobile applications have been developed for women’s safety, activated by a tap, click, or shake. However, carrying a phone at all times or accessing it in a moment of crisis may not always be possible. This is where wearable technology can make a real difference.
The "Watch Me" device is designed to provide security to women in situations of danger or harassment. It features a built-in sensor that detects changes in heart rate, which can indicate distress. If a woman wearing this device is exposed to an unsafe situation, the system can immediately trigger an alert for help.
By integrating smart technology into a wearable form, this device offers a practical and proactive solution for women’s safety. It serves as a step forward in empowering women and ensuring they have access to immediate support when needed.},
