Child Secure: A Wearable Safety Solution for Children Integrated with ESP32-CAM

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Child safety is still a significant challenge in the face of growing threats from both human and animal sources. Solutions currently available to monitor a child’s location and vital signs are based on manual input, where parents need to send exact commands to access information. The reliance on this can cause delays in responding to emergencies. To address these shortcomings, we propose ChildSecure, a smart wearable device for real-time child protection. The system continuously tracks external pressure on the child’s body and senses abnormal heart rate variation. When both conditions show possible distress, the device automatically triggers its inbuilt camera, taking a picture and sending an immediate alert to parents through a Telegram bot. The automated process obviates manual intervention, ensuring prompt response. Parents can also request updates, eg., pictures or locations, via easy bot commands. To add another layer of safety, the device makes an ultrasonic noise when an alert is activated, thereby discouraging any potential threats. ChildSecure provides a complete and trustworthy solution for child safety in different settings by combining real-time monitoring, automatic emergency alerts, and active threat deterrence. Keywords Child safety, Wearable Devices, Parental Solution, Ultrasonic Animal Deterrent, Real-time alerts, Telegram Bot.
