The paper describes a prototype of wearable a device enhanced with GSM technology for protecting women during physical harassment or robbery. This device is having the sensing unit, in the form of a watch and is responsible for monitoring the heartbeat of the individual. It is equipped with a finger print scanner, to wear and remove the device. It also consists of RTC (Real Time Clock) which will display the clock in the system. Heartbeat sensor is used to monitor the heartbeat of the women. If any harassment takes place to women, naturally heartbeat will increase then the wearable device sends the SMS to respective people or police whose numbers are fed in the system. It will send the messages only after a preset delay, so that error can be avoided, during the course of exercise or walking fast.
