  App Interfaces

Inspiration

      This app was inspired by the sexual assault cases that are topping headlines such as the Harvey Weinstein rape accusations. 

What it does

      This app allows victims of all kinds of harassment, abuse, and assault to report crimes to the authorities without the offender or the person committing the crime knowing. We use gadgets, such as jewelry, pins, and wrist watches to connect via Bluetooth to an app. It will alert the nearest police precincts, and give a safe location in which the victims can confide in if they want to receive help. If someone is being held hostage or is in an uncomfortable situation in which they cannot call 911, they can use the "SafeWear" to record audio, alert authorities, or to connect to the app. When connecting to the app from the wearable, it locates the nearest shelters and other safe havens for you to stay. 

How I built it

  Using NeoCities, we created a website using HTML and CSS.

Challenges I ran into

     Discovering the issues that SafeWear might run into and creating an effective solution for the problem was a critical challenge in creating this application. 

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

      Our team worked collaboratively to create an app, website and gadgets. We took advantage of our different strengths to create our final projects. 

What I learned

  When you're working in a team, you need to collaborate with others of different capabilities and strengths. 

What's next for SafeWear

   Hopefully, SafeWear's usage rate will expand and will be a world-known company.
