Increasing urbanization and industrialization in India have raised significant security concerns for women in urban areas. To address this, the study introduces a women’s safety device aimed at enhancing personal security through real-time location tracking and swift emergency communication. The system incorporates an ATmega328 microcontroller, a GPS module for continuous location monitoring, and a GSM module to transmit SMS alerts during emergencies. Additionally, it includes a sound sensor that identifies distress signals and a manual panic button for instant activation. This integrated setup ensures that in a threatening situation, help can be summoned quickly and accurately. The design focuses on being user-friendly, dependable, and efficient, providing timely support and potentially preventing harm. Overall, the proposed solution seeks to offer women a practical and effective safety tool in urban environments, where immediate response is critical. This approach contributes to creating a more secure atmosphere for women, addressing growing concerns about personal safety in rapidly developing cities.

Keywords: GPS tracking, GSM alerts, wearable device, ATmega328 microcontroller, sound sensor, panic switch
