Design of Disha Device for Women Safety

Abstract

India is an emerging superpower but the crime rates against women have only increased to a greater extent. Whilst the conventional method to women's protection are based totally on restrictions, fear and self-maintenance, a paradigm shift primarily based on women's right to an existence that is free from fear and violence is important. In this paper, the author has designed a portable, smart device which facilitates the women in distress to protect themselves with just one press. With features such as in-built live location tracking, audio/video recording, automatic message sending to pre-set emergency contacts, buzzer, flash light and pepper spray, the Disha Device is one solution security system that provides women self-defense and enables them to escape in critical circumstances.
