A group of students in India have come up with a range of hi-tech lingerie equipped with a global positioning system transmitter (GPS), to help women combat sexual assaults. The engineering students who designed the special clothing, to be called Society Harnessing Equipment (SHE), hope to reduce the number of sexual crimes against women. "The lingerie, laced with modules of global positioning system (GPS), global system for mobile communications (GSM) and also pressure sensors, is capable of sending shock waves of 3,800 kV as well as alerts to the girl's parents and police," one of the developers of the product, Manisha Mohan, told the Press Trust of India. As soon as a would-be molester attacks, the GPS sensors in the lingerie are activated and send an emergency call to the police as well as to the potential victim's emergency contact numbers. The hi-tech lingerie will provide "freedom from situations faced in buses and public places" for women who often face sexual assaults in many cities across India, said Mohan. The inventors have approached India's National Institute of Fashion Technology to come up with a fabric that can be washable. Mohan, who studies engineering in southern India, developed the underwear with two other students, Rimpi Tripathi and Neeladri Basu Pal. The team plan to commercialise the product and are looking for investors. They say they already have a number of offers but nothing has been finalised. The prototype has already won awards at science competitions. The idea took shape soon after the Delhi gang-rape incident, which provoked outrage across India. "After the Delhi gang-rape incident, and the rape of a Bangalore BPO worker, I felt women are being tortured in the name of safety. Henceforth, we decided to come up with something innovative which helps women protect themselves besides not being abandoned in the name of safety," said Mohan.

印度一群學(xué)生研發(fā)出一套配備全球定位系統(tǒng)傳感器的高科技內(nèi)衣，幫助女性抵御性侵犯。 設(shè)計(jì)這種名叫“社會(huì)約束裝備”（英文縮寫SHE）的特殊衣服的這些工程學(xué)學(xué)生希望能降低對(duì)女性的性犯罪數(shù)量。 該產(chǎn)品的研發(fā)者之一瑪妮莎?莫漢告訴印度報(bào)業(yè)托拉斯的記者說(shuō)：“這種內(nèi)衣裝有全球定位系統(tǒng)（GPS）、全球移動(dòng)通訊系統(tǒng)（GSM）模塊和壓力傳感器，能夠給女孩的家長(zhǎng)和警方發(fā)出警報(bào)，并能傳輸3800千伏的沖擊波。” 一旦性騷擾者發(fā)動(dòng)襲擊，內(nèi)衣里的全球定位系統(tǒng)感應(yīng)器就會(huì)被激活，撥通潛在受害者的緊急聯(lián)系電話，并向警方發(fā)出緊急呼叫。 莫漢說(shuō)，這種高科技內(nèi)衣將讓印度許多城市中經(jīng)常面臨性騷擾的女性“免遭巴士和公共場(chǎng)所的性侵犯”。 發(fā)明者已經(jīng)請(qǐng)印度國(guó)家時(shí)尚技術(shù)學(xué)院制造出一種耐洗的衣料。 在印度南部學(xué)習(xí)工程學(xué)的莫漢與另外兩個(gè)學(xué)生琳枇?特里帕蒂和妮拉德里?巴素?帕爾共同研發(fā)出這款內(nèi)衣。 這一小組計(jì)劃將該產(chǎn)品商業(yè)化，目前正在尋找投資者。她們稱已經(jīng)有一些人表達(dá)了投資意向，但尚未達(dá)成任何協(xié)議。 這一內(nèi)衣樣品已經(jīng)在幾個(gè)科學(xué)競(jìng)賽中獲獎(jiǎng)。 在發(fā)生激起印度全國(guó)民憤的德里輪奸案后，這一創(chuàng)意就迅速成型。 莫漢說(shuō)：“在發(fā)生德里輪奸案和班加羅爾外包女工強(qiáng)奸案之后，我覺得女性正在以安全的名義遭受折磨。因此，我們決定發(fā)明一種新產(chǎn)品，幫助女性不在安全名義下被拋棄的同時(shí)實(shí)現(xiàn)自我保護(hù)?！?/p> 相關(guān)閱讀 津巴布韋女子團(tuán)伙為收集精子強(qiáng)暴男性游客 聯(lián)合國(guó)報(bào)告：印度廁所不如手機(jī)普及 （中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)網(wǎng)英語(yǔ)點(diǎn)津 陳丹妮） |
