Smart Shoe for Behavioural Tracking

The Team “404 :  Not Found” comprising of Sree Sankar E.(Team Leader),  Joel Abraham, Sandeep Narayanan, Reuben George Mathai, Jeswin Elza James and Keerthana S. of S8, Electronics and Communication Department bagged the First Prize in the 7th Reboot Kerala Hackathon held at FISAT Angamaly based on the topic Healthcare & Social Justice.

This hackathon conducted under the aegis of ASAP Kerala from 6th to 8th March 2020, was attended by 30 teams shortlisted from over 3000 entries from different engineering colleges across Kerala. 

As a part of the contest, they were tasked to develop, within 36 hours, a mobile app/device which provides a single-click trigger input to the nearest police station on conditions of harassment or physical abuse against women.

Within the stipulated time, they were able to build a Smart Shoe with Behavioural Tracking. The smart shoe which they called Mythra, tracks the location, daily behaviour and activity of the user round the clock and if any unusual activity (indicated by a significantly higher variation of vital body parameters) is detected, automatically alerts the nearest law enforcement agency for prompt action.
