Smart Jewelry Products for Human Life More Safety
The smart bracelet Jewelry is currently in prototype form,developed by the graduate student and research assistant Jayun Patel, of the SECRETLab lab at the university of Alabama at Birmingham.It integrates an Adafruit Circuit Playground, a microcontroller with gyroscopes, accelerometers, temperature and pressure sensors, GPS and microphones.
"Sensors allow bracelets to continuously collect user activity data and vital signs," says Patel. It can also determine the direction of the user, for example, they are standing or lying down, machine learning algorithm can detect and distinguish user's regular exercise and unexpected and sudden movement, these movements may encounter attack."It can also determine the direction of the user, for example, they are standing or lying down, machine learning algorithm can detect and distinguish user's regular exercise and unexpected and sudden movement, these movements may encounter attack."
When such an unexpected movement is detected, the smart bracelet will make a loud beeping sound, and the red leds on it will start flashing to warn pedestrians.It also connects to the wearer's smartphone via bluetooth, and then sends a message,which includes the user's current GPS coordinates, to the police and the persons in the user's contact list.
The prototype bracelet manufacturing cost is only $40.Patel is now considering applying the technology to other items, such as earrings or shoes, which may alert the elderly or disabled wearers when they fall.
