2.2 Purpose.
The "Girl Safety" Android application project serves a crucial purpose by addressing the safety
concerns of girls through the integration of mobile technology. The primary objective of this
initiative is to empower individuals, particularly girls, with a tool that enhances their personal
security in various situations.

One key aspect of the application involves the provision for users to input a designated mobile
number. This serves as the recipient for emergency messages triggered by specific actions, such
as shaking the mobile device. The shaking gesture serves as a discreet yet efficient way for users
to signal distress without the need for complex interactions. The automatic generation and
transmission of SOS messages are designed to promptly inform a pre-defined contact about the
user's emergency, enabling a quick and informed response.

In addition to the emergency message, the application incorporates a live location-sharing

feature. When an emergency alert is activated, the user's real-time location is automatically sent
to the designated mobile number. This live location data can be instrumental in expediting the
response process, as it provides accurate information for responders to locate and assist the
individual in distress.

The user interface of the " Girl Safety" application is likely designed to be user-friendly and
intuitive. The application aims to make it easy for users to input and update their emergency
contact information, ensuring that the system remains effective and relevant to the user's needs.

Ultimately, the project represents a commendable effort to leverage technology for the
betterment of personal safety. By providing a tool that enables quick and discreet communication
during emergencies, coupled with real-time location sharing, the "Girl Safety" Android
application contributes to fostering a sense of security and empowerment among its users.
2.3 Algorithm Strategy
The algorithmic strategy of the "Girl Safety" Android application project involves several key
components to enable the desired functionality of emergency message sending and live location
sharing. The following paragraphs outline the primary algorithmic aspects of the application:

1. User Input Handling:

The application needs to incorporate a robust algorithm for handling user inputs. This includes
capturing and validating the emergency contact mobile number entered by the user. The
algorithm ensures that the entered information is accurate and in the correct format to prevent
errors during the emergency alert process.

2. Sensor-Based Triggering:
The shaking gesture triggering mechanism relies on the device's sensors, such as the
accelerometer. The algorithm continuously monitors the sensor data and activates the emergency
alert mechanism when it detects a predefined shaking pattern. This involves setting thresholds
for acceleration values and employing algorithms to filter out non-emergency shaking events to
avoid false positives.

3. Emergency Message Generation:

When the shaking gesture is detected, the algorithm generates an emergency message that
includes relevant information, such as a distress signal, the fact that the user is in need of help,
and any other user-defined information. The algorithm ensures that the message is concise yet
informative, conveying the urgency of the situation to the emergency contact.

4. Location Tracking:
Simultaneously with the emergency message generation, the algorithm initiates the process of
obtaining the device's live location. This involves leveraging the device's GPS or other location
services. The algorithm periodically updates the location and includes this information in the
emergency message. Location tracking algorithms need to be efficient to minimize battery
consumption while providing accurate real-time coordinates.

5. Secure Communication:
The algorithm ensures that the communication between the application and the server or
emergency contact's device is secure. It may involve encryption techniques to protect the user's
privacy and prevent unauthorized access to the transmitted information. Security measures are
critical to maintaining the integrity and confidentiality of the emergency alerts.
 6. Error Handling and Confirmation:
The application's algorithm incorporates error-handling mechanisms to address issues such as
network unavailability, incorrect emergency contact information, or failures in location tracking.
Additionally, the algorithm confirms the successful delivery of the emergency message to the
designated contact, providing feedback to the user about the status of the alert.

7. User Settings and Customization:

To enhance the user experience, the algorithm allows users to customize settings such as the
sensitivity of the shaking gesture, the frequency of location updates, and the content of the
emergency message. These customizable parameters make the application adaptable to
individual preferences and needs.

By implementing these algorithmic strategies, the "Msbte Girl Safety" Android application aims
to provide a reliable and effective solution for enhancing personal safety and enabling quick
response in emergency situations.
2.4 Existing System to Create project.
