Phase 1: Prototype Development
Design and fabrication of wearable and fixed SOS units using Arduino MKR WAN 1310 and MPU9250 sensors. Implementation of LoRaWAN communication via Dragino DLOS8N Gateway. Integration of multi-source panic detection.
Empowering Kerala with Affordable SOS Technology
RescueLink is a community-centered safety innovation that combines IoT, AI, and LoRaWAN communication to create an affordable, reliable, and scalable SOS detection and response network. The system detects distress situations — such as accidents, crashes, or manual panic triggers — and instantly transmits alerts to a central monitoring hub through long-range wireless communication, ensuring timely response even in remote areas. Designed to enhance public safety, women’s protection, and elderly care, RescueLink represents a fusion of engineering excellence and humanitarian purpose.

Extended range and reliability testing in real-world conditions. Optimization of panic escalation logic, cloud alert system, and dashboard monitoring. User feedback collection from pilot regions.
Scaled deployment in selected districts of Kerala. Collaboration with local authorities and NGOs for emergency linkage. Integration with public safety networks and health departments.
The RescueLink project is conceptualized, developed, and implemented by the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) Kerala Chapter, bringing together a multidisciplinary team of professionals and students passionate about technology for social good. The project is hosted at the College of Engineering Poonjar.

We are actively looking for partners, volunteers, and communities for our next phase. Please reach out to us to learn more about how you can be a part of this initiative.
