Specification

Description:The present invention relates to a wearable safety system designed to provide continuous, hands-free protection against physical threats, particularly for women. This system is being embodied in a set of attachable and detachable artificial nails with advanced technology combined with everyday wearability. These nails have a neural interface, sensors, a device that triggers shock, and a camera operating in a synchronized manner to sense the intent or actual physical reach of an assailant and auto-evokes an electric shock response. This invention provides a user with a sufficient means of self-defense because it is proactive and does not require people to activate it in a manual method to use it for enhanced security and peace of mind. According to the various embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 illustrates the design structure of Artificial Human-Connected Attachable and Detachable Nail System having components 280 degrees' camera (1), temperature sensor (2), shock producer (3), pressure sensor (4) and the wireless bluetooth communication (5) and its functionality is detailed as:
Neural Interface and Automatic Threat Detection
In one embodiment, the core feature of the invention is the brain-neural interface (BNI), which is a non-invasive connection between the nails and the wearer's brain. The Brain-Neural Interface (BNI) continually monitors the wearers' brainwaves, for signals predictive of distress, fear, and heightened awareness - precursors to physical and emotional harm. The system uses such brain signals as signs of the presence of a threat, such as someone dangerous and even stress level rising suddenly, to detect dangers before it consciously becomes evident to the person wearing it. The neural interface sends the signals to the control system housed within the nails. The control system has signalled the threatening conditions and immediately activate the shock mechanism, giving an incapacitating and a deterrent shock to the aggressor.
The ability of the Brain-Neural Interface (BNI) to detect these physiological and cognitive responses to threat provides a significant advantage, which often require the user to manually engage the device after recognizing the danger. By using the brain's natural response mechanisms, the system reacts more quickly than reflex actions, providing immediate protection in high-stress situations when the wearer is being unable to take action on their own.
Adaptive Sensors for Threat Detection
To complement the neural interface, the invention incorporates adaptive sensors embedded within the nails that monitor external interactions. The sensors have a sensitivity to identify changes in pressure, temperature, as well as electrical changes that result from physical contact with an assailant. Sensors are very sensitive and uniquely developed to distinguish harmless touching, like brushing and incidental contact, from more hostile and injurious physical interaction with a person. The system is designed to ensure that the shock mechanism triggers only if sensors detect a significant and aggressive threat, such as a squeeze, pinch, and more hurtful physical contact.
These adaptive sensors ensure continuous protection levels by monitoring the surroundings of the wearer all the time, even when the person is not conscious of any danger lurking around. It enables the system to trigger the shock mechanism before the conscious mind of the person in question can, thus acting preventively as well. With this ability, the system adapts dexterously in as many scenarios as possible-from a variety of attacks and force levels-that are preceded by an appropriate response to the nature of the threat.
Integrated Camera for Evidence Capture
Another key feature of the invention is the integrated 280° wide-angle cameras, which is embedded within one and more of the artificial nails. The camera is a primary recording device when it records abuse, harassment, and assault live over time incidents. Mounted along the side of the user's thumb and other fingernail of a user, the wide-angle camera captures a wide field of view to capture a wide view of the space. This video evidence also be sent using Bluetooth to the wearer's smartphone and to their emergency contacts/ even to law enforcement agencies in case of an emergency.
The camera is activated automatically when the system detects a potential threat and harmful contact, ensuring that any dangerous situation is recorded from the moment the threat is identified. In this way, the camera not only acts as a deterrent, as the presence of recording devices often discourages would-be attackers, but also provides valuable documentation that is being used in legal proceedings and investigations. The camera's wide-angle design ensures that a broad area is captured, increasing the chances of recording important details such as the attacker's identity, the environment, and any other critical factors that aid in the resolution of the incident.
Smartphone Integration and Remote Monitoring
In another embodiment, the invention includes smartphone integration, which allows users to monitor and control the system remotely. The nails connect with the user's smartphone via Bluetooth so that monitoring of the operational status of the nails in real time is being done, such as when a shock has been delivered and when the system identified a potential threat. This also enables the user to set up different settings according to one's choice, such as the intensity of the shock response. Through the application, the users check the battery levels of the nails, meaning that the use is assured to always be full of juice and ready for service.
In the event of a detected threat, the app sends real-time notifications to emergency contacts, which includes a family member, friend, and law enforcement. The app also shares live video footage from the camera, along with the wearer's current GPS location, allowing for rapid response from emergency services and trusted contacts. This smartphone integration enhances the functionality of the system by providing an additional layer of support in real-time, ensuring that the wearer notify others of the situation, record evidence, and receive help promptly.
Shock Mechanism and Power Supply
The shock-producing mechanism is a vital component of the invention, embedded within one and more of the artificial nails. The shock mechanism is designed to deliver a mild but effective electrical shock to the aggressor upon detection of harmful contact. The intensity of the shock is calibrated to be strong enough to deter and incapacitate the attacker without causing permanent harm, ensuring that the device provides a humane and controlled response. The shock mechanism is being adjusted through the smartphone app to accommodate the user's comfort level and safety needs, offering customization based on personal preferences.
The rechargeable micro-battery powering these nails enables the functioning of sensors, shock mechanism, camera, and the Bluetooth communication system. The battery design allows it to have performance that last long as it supports the operation for the continuous monitoring time and occasional shock activations. It is being recharged with ease using a bespoke-designed charging case (Figure 2), which simultaneously acts to store and protect the nails during periods when the system is not in operation. The charging case is compact in size and portable. The user easily charge the nails whenever required. It comes with software that monitors the battery levels and conveys notifications to the wearer every time the battery is low. The nails are therefore always ready for use.
Tamper-Resistant and Sustainable Design
The nails are made up of tough, lightweight material such as polymer and acrylic selected for qualities of strength, flexibility, and comfort in making them functional for daily use and resistant to either external pressure and tampering efforts. The nails do not easily be removed and disabled by an attacker; hence, the safety system can remain functional and intact even in a case of an assault.
Apart from safety capabilities, these nails are environmental friendly designs that feature sustainable materials which minimize the product's ecological footprint. The invention takes into account not only the safety of the wearer but also the broader ecological considerations of the product's production and disposal. In keeping with the growing demand for responsibility to the production of mostly environment-friendly products in the market, this invention blends perfectly. This environmentally conscious design adds an extra layer of value to the invention, aligning with the growing demand for responsible, eco-friendly products in today's market
The structured step-by-step process ensures that the Artificial Human-Connected Attachable and Detachable Nail System provides automatic, continuous, and seamless protection to the wearer, with real-time responses to potential threats (Figure 3) and is explained as:
1. Brain-Neural Interface (BNI) Activation
The present invention represents a significant advancement in wearable safety technology. By combining neural interface technology, adaptive sensors, a shock mechanism, camera integration, and smartphone connectivity, the system provides users with continuous, hands-free protection against physical threats. Its automatic, real-time threat detection and response capabilities allow for faster reaction times, offering immediate protection in situations where quick action is critical. With its discreet and stylish design, this wearable system integrates seamlessly into the wearer's daily routine, empowering women with a reliable and effective self-defense tool that is being worn at all times.
2. Biometric Sensors Data
In parallel to the Brain-Neural Interface (BNI), the wearable nails are equipped with embedded biometric sensors designed to track various physical parameters such as heart rate, stress levels, skin conductivity, and blood pressure. These sensors continuously monitor the physiological response of the wearer, closely monitoring for spikes indicating the onset of physical stress and fear-the true barometers of danger. The system's software is processing this data in real-time. These detected abnormal patterns, like elevated heart beat and sweating, are used as triggers to further evaluate if the wearer is a threat, and then activate the following steps of the system.
3. Wireless Bluetooth Communication
Upon detecting distress signals from either the Brain-Neural Interface (BNI) and the biometric sensors, the system triggers wireless Bluetooth communication to immediately notify emergency contacts, authorities, and nearby individuals. This is especially important because it enables sharing of the location as well as situation of the wearer in real time. The system sends alerts along with other essential data: the current location of the user; it has caused a shock to the attacker; live footage from the built-in 280° cameras. It ensures that help is on the way and records all the important evidence for any law enforcement and other parties involved.
4. Camera Activation
The nails are equipped with a 280° wide-angle camera, which automatically starts rolling if an attack has occurred. The camera takes real-time images of the whole scene with excellent resolution in detail. Beyond establishing the evidence, the video file is being streamed live to emergency response personnel and other trusted contacts and even used to recognize the attacker later on. In doing this, the system ensures that none of the critical moments are missed and provides a full record of the event. Regardless of whether the footage is stored locally on the device and uploaded to a secure cloud system, this footage is indispensable for the process of investigations and legal processes.
5. Shock Mechanism Activation
Once the system detects a potential threat, it activates the shock-producing mechanism embedded in the nails. The mechanism dispenses low-level electrical shock, which temporarily incapacitate the attacker. This electric shock is intended as a warning for someone, enabling the wearer to retreat immediately and move away from the attacker. The shock mechanism is built to maximize effectiveness without permanently injuring; it only temporarily incapacitates the perpetrator and, in most cases, sometimes even stop the situation from escalating further. It gives its wearer a chance to escape and look for help.
6. Charging and Maintenance
The system is designed to operate efficiently at all times, with built-in functionality for power management and maintenance. The nails are powered by a rechargeable micro-battery, and the system continuously monitors the battery levels through the embedded software. When the battery reaches a low threshold, the system notifies the user to recharge the device. The user is being able to charge the nails using a particular charging case, thereby maintaining optimal power levels if inactive. The system also tracks all components regarding the status of their operation, alerting the user to whether maintenance and calibration is required in order to ensure the system's reliability and functionality.
This process is designed to function seamlessly, providing the wearer with continuous protection without requiring active management. Here are the core advantages of this system:
• Automatic Detection: By continuously monitoring brain and biometric signals, the system detects threats before the wearer consciously recognizes them, triggering an automatic response.
• Real-Time Alerts and Evidence: The integration of Bluetooth and a camera ensures that in the event of an attack, help be alerted immediately while gathering real-time evidence.
• Non-Invasive and Discreet: The nails serve as both a fashionable accessory and a safety tool, making it a discreet solution for women who do not want to carry traditional safety devices like pepper spray/ alarms.
• Dual Purpose (Safety + Fashion): The nails serve as a daily accessory that doesn't look out of place, increasing the likelihood of regular use and avoiding the stigma that come with more traditional self-defense tools.
This system's combination of neural interface, biometric sensing, and automatic response mechanism sets it apart from traditional safety devices, offering a unique and highly responsive solution for women's personal safety.
