Technological Solution using low cost devices to prevent feminicide scenes

Abstract

In this research paper, we present a technological solution proposal to the problem associated to violence towards women in Peru. A conclusion was reached, based on a study, of the main existing channels for prevention and complaint. From the carried out study, it was determined that there are high attention times and information asymmetries between the different actors in the system. The posed solution reduces the minimum time necessary for the attention and detention of an act of violence by providing an immediate reaction. In this procedure we use low-cost components and existing systems on the market. The solution brings together technological components properly configured to track violence, which consists mainly of: 1) A wearable device, alerting a specific group of people previously added, relatives, acquaintances or people willing to help, 2) A communication system with a real-time alert, which, through signals, communicates to a cloud platform, these signals are distributed to a mobile application and website. The solution was validated at a national police station located in Lima. The aim is to contribute to the reduction of the response time of help and the asymmetry of information. The time used with the proposed solution reduced 60% with respect to two solutions that the Ministry of Justice of Peru has implemented in the last five months. of operation.
