Abstract: In the modern era, ensuring the safety and security of women has become a critical social challenge, especially in urban environments and during solo travel. This project proposes an innovative IoT-based Women Safety Badge System designed to provide an immediate response during life-threatening situations such as sexual harassment, physical danger, or medical emergencies. The system is built around a compact, wearable microcontroller unit integrated with a high sensitivity GPS (Global Positioning System) and a GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) module. The core functionality of the device is triggered by a dedicated emergency "panic button." Upon activation, the system instantly captures the user’s precise real time geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude). This data is then transmitted as an automated SOS alert message to multiple predefined emergency contacts and local authorities via the cellular network. By providing the live location link, the system minimizes the response time of rescuers, which is crucial in critical moments.
