WOMAN SAFETY APP

In today’s world, people using smart phones have increased rapidly and hence, a smart phone can be used efficiently for personal security or various other protection purposes. The heinous incident that outraged the entire nation has woken us to go for the safety issues and so a host of new apps have been developed to provide security systems to women via their phones. This project presents, an Android Application for the Safety of Women, this app can be activated by just shaking phone three times, whenever need arises. By just three times shake identifies the location of place through GPS and sends a message comprising this location URL to the registered contacts to help the one in dangerous situations. The unique feature of this application is to send the message to the registered contacts after the phone is shook for three times. Instant location tracking information via SMS helps to find the location of the victim quickly and can be rescued safely. A wide range of tracking systems has been developed for tracking vehicles and displaying their position on a map, applications has been developed which tracks the mobility of a human being. Now a days tracking a person’s mobility has become a crucial issue, specifically in case of women. If tracking a criminal could be implemented as a system which is cost effective and can be used for tracking a human being using a GPS equipped mobile phone rather than using a handheld GPS receiver. The main aim of our project is to develop an application that reduces the overall cost of tracking based on GPS system, which is satellite-based service, and it is available 24X7 everywhere in the whole world. GPS system can be used to get location which includes details like latitude, longitude and altitude values along with the time details, etc. It is a free of cost service available to every individual. In order to track the movement of the person we have used Google maps for mapping the location sent by the mobile phone. The mobile phone fetches the GPS location which communicates with the server using General Packet Radio Service (GPRS). This system is a low-cost service which is wireless data communication system. Mobile phone equipped with GPS receiver are easily available in the market, it is a latest technology. The mobile phone technology has enabled us to communicate across the world. The GPRS is one of the best and cheapest mode of communication available today.
