SafeSpace: An Integrated Web Application for Digital Safety and Emotional Well-being

In the digital era, individuals are increasingly exposed to online harms such as toxicity, manipulation, and grooming, which often pose emotional and safety risks. Existing systems for detecting abusive content or issuing safety alerts operate in isolation and rarely combine digital safety with emotional well-being. In this paper, we present SafeSpace, a unified web application that integrates three modules: (1) toxicity detection in chats and screenshots using NLP models and Google's Perspective API, (2) a configurable safety ping system that issues emergency alerts with the user's live location (longitude and latitude) via SMTP-based emails when check-ins are missed or SOS alerts are manually triggered, and (3) a reflective questionnaire that evaluates relationship health and emotional resilience. The system employs Firebase for alert management and a modular architecture designed for usability, privacy, and scalability. The experimental evaluation shows 93% precision in toxicity detection, 100% reliability in safety alerts under emulator tests, and 92% alignment between automated and manual questionnaire scoring. SafeSpace, implemented as a web application, demonstrates the feasibility of integrating detection, protection, and reflection within a single platform, with future deployment envisioned as a mobile application for broader accessibility.

Large Action Models (LAMs) have revolutionized intelligent automation, but their application in healthcare faces challenges due to privacy concerns, latency, and dependency on internet access. This report introduces an ondevice, multi-agent healthcare assistant that overcomes these limitations. The system utilizes smaller, task-specific agents to optimize resources, ensure scalability and high performance. Our proposed system acts as a one-stop solution for health care needs with features like appointment booking, health monitoring, medication reminders, and daily health reporting. Powered by the Qwen Code Instruct 2.5 7B model, the Planner and Caller Agents achieve an average RougeL score of 85.5 for planning and 96.5 for calling for our tasks while being lightweight for on-device deployment. This innovative approach combines the benefits of ondevice systems with multi-agent architectures, paving the way for user-centric healthcare solutions.


It's not just for cops anymore -- How this tiny body cam lets anyone record everything

FOX News

Body cameras are usually associated with law enforcement, but what if you could have one for yourself? Imagine being able to capture everything that happens around you and send a distress signal to your family or friends if you need help. That's what PhoneCam, a tiny, affordable and smart AI-powered device, can do for you. CLICK TO GET KURT'S FREE CYBERGUY NEWSLETTER WITH SECURITY ALERTS, QUICK VIDEO TIPS, TECH REVIEWS, AND EASY HOW-TO'S TO MAKE YOU SMARTER PhoneCam is designed to help people feel safer in a world where personal safety fears are at a three-decade high in the U.S., according to a 2023 Gallup poll. It is smaller than a classic BIC lighter and weighs only 20 grams.

Falls represent one of the most detrimental occurrences for the elderly. Given the continually increasing ageing demographic, there is a pressing demand for advancing fall detection systems. The swift progress in sensor networks and the Internet of Things (IoT) has made human-computer interaction through sensor fusion an acknowledged and potent approach for tackling the issue of fall detection. Even IoT-enabled systems can deliver economical health monitoring solutions tailored to pregnant women within their daily environments. Recent research indicates that these remote health monitoring setups have the potential to enhance the well-being of both the mother and the infant throughout the pregnancy and postpartum phases. One more emerging advancement is the integration of 'panic buttons,' which are gaining popularity due to the escalating emphasis on safety. These buttons instantly transmit the user's real-time location to pre-designated emergency contacts when activated. Our solution focuses on the above three challenges we see every day. Fall detection for the elderly helps the elderly in case they fall and have nobody around for help. Sleep pattern sensing is helpful for pregnant women based on the SPO2 sensors integrated within our device. It is also bundled with heart rate monitoring. Our third solution focuses on a panic situation; upon pressing the determined buttons, a panic alert would be sent to the emergency contacts listed. The device also comes with a mobile app developed using Flutter that takes care of all the heavy processing rather than the device itself.


New AI offers 'personal protection' against abductions, criminal threats

FOX News

CMO and co-founder of Protect Matt Frischer told Fox News Digital that he hopes this app will save lives and eventually deter crime. An artificial intelligence-powered phone app can act like a shield to alert loved ones and first responders about emergencies like a fire or potential crimes. A woman in distress while jogging, for example, would have new protections in place under the Protect app after a March study published by Adidas said 92% of women are concerned for their safety and 51% are afraid of being physically attacked. Saying a code word in Siri for iPhones or by tapping the app automatically connects a live feed to emergency contacts, who get a video and location in real time. If the attack already happened and the victim is incapacitated, the emergency contact can call 911 on their behalf, which goes to the nearest police department and includes the video feed.
