I have to protect myself and need to walk on my own. That's why we want to produce a product like rape-proof sticker . "

However, if the victim is no longer alert, the device will switch to active mode. This means that the sticker will use information from the environment, such as clothes removal efforts to assess the situation and activate the alert mode, asking for help instead of the victim.

The team claims that the device can be used as a safety measure for babies and young children, bed-ridden patients, the elderly, people with disabilities or those who are drunk and beaten. anesthetic. It can be affixed to any type of clothing, including underwear.
