In the context of the increasing cases of crimes and emergencies, this paper discusses the safety of women in the modern society. This research provides an insight into the development and designing of a smart wearable IoT safety watch which provides real-time emergency alerts along with health monitoring facilities. The system makes use of Arduino Nano to perform as a controller, while the other components like heartbeat sensor and temperature sensor are used to detect abnormalities. In case of emergencies, the system automatically sends the alert message with real-time GPS locations through GSM module to pre-defined contacts. Moreover, a manual emergency button is included in order to generate the alert message manually by the user.

The introduction of the IoT-based women’s safety watch proves to be a viable and reliable approach to ensuring safety. By virtue of the incorporation of sensor technology, GPS positioning, and GSM connectivity, the system allows for immediate detection and handling of emergencies. The process of sending alerts becomes largely automated, reducing the need for human intervention and improving safety levels significantly. The device is affordable, easy to use, and practical to implement.
