Xianfan demonstrated the personal security wristband at the FURI symposium

Participants: Xianfan Gu, Rajan Vivek, Patrick Kennedy

How long does it take to call your emergency contacts when you need immediate help? In many cases, every single second matters. Our goal in this project is to create a smart alarm system in the form of a wristband, that allows you to trigger an alarm by simply stretching it. The device is made energy-free through the integration of a solar panel and a rechargeable battery.

This project is in progress.
