Introduction

Introducing our groundbreaking project, 'HELSAFE', brought to life during the esteemed GradCapital event at Inter IIT Techmeet 11.0 in 2023, hosted by IIT Kanpur, where we pitched it with successful demontration of a working prototype and proudly clinched the Bronze medal.

Recognizing the crucial yet perilous roles of firefighters and miners(In mines, every year 15000 people die while working), we set out to create an innovative solution for their safety and well-being. Witnessing a lack of specialized smart wearables for these professionals, we developed an exceptional smart helmet.

This cutting-edge device not only measures vital signs such as heart rate, blood oxygen level, concentration of poisonous gases in the environment, and body temperature of the wearer, but it also boasts a dedicated communication system that connects the helmet to a central control station. Even in areas with compromised communication channels, this system enables sending SOS signals in emergencies or automatically detecting critical health conditions and notifying the central control station. The software accompanying the central control station assists in identifying the distressed individual, providing their health parameters and location for immediate assistance. Additionally, the system offers guidance to prevent overexertion, ensuring workers take timely breaks for optimal performance and safety.

Our project exemplifies the spirit of technical entrepreneurship, serving as a beacon of hope and progress for those in high-risk occupations.
