Vigila: Application for General Safety

Most safety applications already existing in the market send SOS messages to the victim’s saved contacts and the police, which could prove to be slow in situations which demand urgency. We propose a system to counter this and to respond to such emergencies. We store real-time location of our users and when anyone presses the SOS button, all users in a 100 meter radius, around that user, are notified about the emergency along with the coordinates of the victim. Our application also maintains a comprehensive first-aid and emergency response guide which the users can peruse so they can be more helpful in such situations.
