Abstract

Women’s safety remains critical amid rising harass-ment cases against physically challenged women. This paper  presents EmpowerHer, a wearable IoT-driven safety device using  Arduino Uno that integrates GPS tracking, GSM emergency SMS alerts, ESP32-CAM live video streaming, APR33A voice distress, playback, and panic button activation. The compact wristwatch-like system sends precise GPS coordinates.

LONG 15.0995483), plays “Help!” audio, activates vibration feed-back, and provides local buzzer deterrence. Hardware includes
Node MCU WiFi, NEO-6M GPS (162 dBm sensitivity), SIM900A. GSM, relay, LCD I2C display, and vibration motor. Testing confirms reliable SMS delivery, stable video streaming, and  continuous system monitoring. This Arduino-based IoT solution delivers cost-effective real-time protection for women, elderly, and physically challenged individuals in urban environments
