A wearable non-lethal, self-defense apparatus can include a main body portion, such as a bracelet, watch, sweat band or ring, configured to be worn by a user. The apparatus can include a control circuit and an activation circuit. The apparatus can also include an indicator adapted to receive an armed signal from the control circuit and transmit an indication that the self-defense apparatus is armed to a receiver in communication with the device. The apparatus can also include a high voltage generation circuit adapted to generate a high voltage in response to a voltage control signal received from the control circuit. Upon activation, the apparatus arms and is capable of discharging and delivering high voltage to an assailant via a plurality of electrodes. The apparatus can also include an integrated circuit (e.g., a GPS module) to determine location and a communications circuit to transmit the location upon arming and/or discharge. |
