Abstract

In recent years, the rapid advancement of technology has paved the way for innovative solutions aimed at enhancing personal safety and security. Among these, wearable Internet of Things (IoT) devices have emerged as a significant development, particularly in safeguarding vulnerable groups such as women and children. This paper introduces a smart security solution that leverages wearable IoT systems to provide real-time monitoring and protection. The increasing incidence of crimes against women and children highlights the urgent need for effective safety measures. Traditional security approaches often fall short in offering immediate assistance or preventive measures. However, wearable IoT devices, equipped with sensors and connectivity features, offer a proactive approach to security. These devices can monitor various physiological and environmental parameters, detect potential threats, and trigger timely alerts to guardians or authorities Our proposed smart security solution integrates advanced IoT technologies with user-friendly wearable devices designed specifically for women and children. This system encompasses several critical components, including GPS tracking, real-time communication, health monitoring, and emergency alert mechanisms. By harnessing the power of IoT, this solution aims to provide continuous protection, enhance situational awareness, and facilitate rapid response in case of emergencies. In this paper, we will explore the design, functionality, and potential impact of wearable IoT devices in improving the safety and security of women and children. We will also discuss the challenges and considerations in implementing such systems, including privacy concerns, data security, and the need for reliable connectivity. Through this comprehensive examination, we aim to demonstrate the viability and importance of IoT-based wearable technology in fostering a safer environment for vulnerable populations.
