Women's Safety Device Using Arduino, GSM and GPS Module

It's not hard to build a safety device for women which will not only generate an emergency alarm but also send a message to your friends, family, or concerned person. Here we will build a band that can be worn by women, using which they can inform police or anyone, using SOS emergency SMS along with the current location. Using this information, the police will be able to save the victim from the location. For this, here we are using an Arduino which can be interfaced with GSM and GPS module for sending SMS alerts and getting the location coordinates.
