According to the recently released data by the National Crime Records Bureau, there has been a significant rise in the vulnerability of children, with a staggering 1.49 lakh cases of crimes against children registered in 2021. Out of the total six million crimes documented by the Indian police throughout the year from January 1st to December 31st, crimes against women accounted for 428,278 cases. The report highlights that the majority of the cases in 2021 encompassed offenses such as kidnappings, abductions, rapes, domestic violence, dowry deaths, and assaults. Ensuring the safety of women, children, and senior citizens has become a critical concern in today's society. The rise in crimes against these vulnerable groups necessitates immediate action to address the issue. This research paper proposes an alert system for social safety that utilizes commonly available electronic devices to trigger emergency alerts and provide immediate location information. The system aims to not only assist the victims but also alert nearby individuals and emergency contacts in real-time. The proposed system leverages a mobile application integrated with an IoT module, enabling users to activate the alert system by pressing a panic button or shaking their phone. Additionally, IoT devices can be used as an alternative means to trigger the alert. Once activated, the system sends the user's location coordinates along with a distress message and health details to their registered emergency contacts via telegram and individuals within a 500-meter range. The system also incorporates various features such as fall detection, blood pressure monitoring, Spo2 levels, heart rate monitoring, and body temperature sensing through the IoT module. The ultimate objective of this system is to ensure that victims receive timely assistance. Furthermore, future integration with other smart devices such as Bluetooth smartwatches is envisioned to expand the system's capabilities. The proposed system not only focuses on enhancing personal safety but also fosters a sense of community by alerting nearby individuals who can provide immediate help.
