Is it an app? Is it a monitoring system? Or is it a handheld device? It's all three.

This state-of-the-art system utilizes "smart" technology and a hand-held device that is small enough to hang from your keychain. The Defender will make potential attackers think twice. Here's why:

The Defender uses the latest in:
Bluetooth technology
24/7 Remote Monitoring
GPS
Embedded-Camera
Oscillating flash light
Compact Audible Alarm
Pepper Spray - Highest Legal Concentration

Here's how it works: The Defender’s smart phone app connects via Bluetooth with The Defender device. The Defender features a camera, oscillating flash, siren and pepper spray all-in-one and connects with the 24/7 alert monitoring service through the smart phone app. The Defender goes into action instantaneously with one button.

The Defender snaps a photo of the attacker, while the siren sounds to attract attention and the high-strength pepper spray leaves them immobilized. A message is sent directly to monitoring agents. Users control the information shared from within the app included a user profile with photo, medical conditions, and any relevant safety concerns that users will want to share with authorities.

Ryan McManus, Marketing Director stated, “The Defender will change the way we think about personal safety. We unconsciously ensure our safety every day and we never think twice about locking our doors or snapping a seat belt in-place. The Defender on your key chain provides a revolutionary step forward by empowering the user. Whether for yourself or someone you care about, The Defender just makes sense.”

McManus added, "The Defender goes into action with one push of a button. Internet-connected devices are enhancing all aspects of our lives and we have brought this connectivity to personal safety. The Defender sets a new standard in self-defense and we are excited to be launching on IndieGogo."

The Defender will be ready for manufacturing and tooling after a 45-day crowdfunding campaign on IndieGogo starting July 22nd. It's the system's ability for instantaneous response that elevates it to leading-edge status; to join the crowdfunding campaign and be among the first to have the new standard for personal self-defense protection systems, visit http://igg.me/at/theDefender/x/6730810
