DWINE Your Fear—Defensive Device for Women in Need

Abstract

The crime rate against women and girls in India is rapidly increasing every day. Women are not able to lead their lives independently even in this modernized world. A lot number of physical abuse attacks are being reported on a daily basis. According to the recent government reports, every fifteen minutes, one child is being sexually abused in India. But the criminal is not getting punished due to lack of proper evidence. 99% of such cases go unreported. The presence of CCTV’s is helping in some way, but when the attack happens in a remote area, there is no way to find the accused. The lack of education about the good touch and bad touch among school kids is one of the important factors. In case of girls who have a little knowledge about the bad touch, are either hesitant to inform their parents, or informing them only after the crime has been committed, which is of no use. The chances of punishing the criminal are quite low in such cases. Therefore, a new solution is expected as a modern system which prevents the child abusement crime from happening or at least to find the criminal immediately to prevent another child from the same crime. A wearable device which records the Adrenaline and Oxytocin levels of the body using sensors is suggested. The heart beat rate is also taken into consideration to detect if the girl is in any danger. Pictures of the surroundings are also clicked using an in-built camera to have a proper evidence.
