Abstract: This research outlines the creation of a panic alarm prototype based on Arduino technology. An examination was undertaken to identify gaps in existing panic alarm systems. The data collected from this research gap analysis informed the development process, which followed the agile software development method. The development utilized C++ web technologies on a computer equipped with an i5 processor, 12GB DDR III RAM, a 250GB hard disk drive, and a 500GB solid-state drive. The study successfully produced a prototype alarm featuring a GPS and SMS module, addressing the identified research gap in current panic alarms and offering an additional layer of security during travel. The GPS module demonstrated approximately 80% accuracy, acknowledging challenges in locating signals within buildings or residential areas. Testing involved five locations, including open spaces and indoor settings, with the prototype activated while the user moved. The SMS function operated concurrently with the GPS, sending messages to the registered user based on the prototype's location as determined by the GPS.
