This project outlines the steps required to build an “S.O.S.” bracelet that sends an emergency signal in risky situations. The DragonBoard™ 410c from Arrow Electronics is paired with the Arduino LilyPad over a Bluetooth connection, and when a predefined sequence is applied to the sensor, the bracelet is designed to send an alarm with its location information to a security center using http protocol.

Objective

The aim of this project is to create a device capable of sending an "S.O.S." message to the nearest security center to assist with the safety of the user. Its use is targeted for people that tend to go to places like bars, malls and restaurants frequently.
