Abstract

Most of the people become a victim to crime or harassment only when they travel alone i.e. when their location cannot be identified immediately to send aid. Thus, the best way to aid the victimized people is to identify their current location and send in help situated nearby. Our proposed system's objective is to help lone travelers to be safe and secure. Before any travel the user may input their destination as well as the mode of transport, the app estimates the time of travel. It also studies the user movement, the speed, etc. Whenever the estimated time gets exceeded or whenever there is a change in this behavioral pattern, a warning notification is sent to the user. If the user responds, no action is taken else the nearest police station and the patrol squads are notified. Thus a safety mobile application to minimize the risks of travelling alone can be designed.
