AURA: An AI-Driven Mobile Safety Application for Women with Real-Time Monitoring and Legal Assistance

This research article outlines AURA-an AI-based mobile safety application that will increase women's safety in India.Unlike traditional safety applications that merely react after a safety event happens, AURA represents a preliminary push toward a proactive safety infrastructure based on real-time geofenced data, anomaly prediction from mobile sensors, AIenabled navigation tools using AR, chatbot legal support tools, and user-generated safety surveys.The app included predictive anomaly detection based on mobile sensors, AR-enabled navigation to select safe routes, a legal chatbot that could provide any legal help, documents and advice, and usergenerated requests for safety and crowd-sourced reports.Lastly, AURA utilizes geofenced dynamic environmental risklevel notifications from real-time user-generated reports or safety messages.Pilot trials in urban geographical regions have established AURA responses for intentional emergencies and coping with emergencies with promising results based on good levels of emergency handling, good overall user experience, and high levels of satisfaction.AURA is a meaningful advancement for an integrated smart system of proactive responses within a safe context-aware infrastructure.
