Snappy surrounding alert for android

Abstract

Snappy surrounding alert is an android application for headphone users who receive voice alert message about their surroundings while they are listening to something using their headphone. It alerts the users automatically by capturing the situation in his surroundings. If the user wants to be alerted about the surrounding when he uses the headphone he should first enable the Snappy surrounding alert app and the GPS. After enabling, the application starts to work and alerts the user under three different scenarios. First is a location based alert, where the GPS continuously collects the current latitude and longitude of the user and alerts him through his headphone speaker with a voice message when he is in careful zone such as railway station, highways, railway track. Second is a high pitch alert, which is triggered when the headphones microphone receives a high pitch sound such as vehicle horn from the surrounding. Third is a calling alert that will be raised when someone from nearest surrounding calls the mobile user by his name or other general context such as sir, excuse me, madam and so on. The alert message for all the scenarios are played in the format of voice. Thus this application can continuously monitor the surroundings and warn the mobile headphone users. It reduces many accidents and introduces a system which solves the problem for headphone users.
