I got this idea after several of my friends got mugged in Montreal these past two months, one of them was mugged literally in front of my doorstep.
So I wanted to solve this issue and it turns out it has a very simple and elegant solution (in my opinion anyways), so I decided to get out of my comfort zone and have a try at mobile development.
WalkSafe is an app that makes use of the proximity sensor of a smart phone to create an automated defence mechanism against potential aggressive behaviour.
Sadly all of the features I had in mind were not fully implemented but I plan on perfecting this app furthermore in the next couple of days or weeks.
