A browser-based emergency system that lets a prepared phone receive remote rescue instructions, location checks, flashing lights, vibration, whistles, and spoken directions.

Why it surfaced

The mechanism is unusually concrete: after consent, a server can wake the prepared device, announce its location, and ask nearby people to call 112 or 119 without requiring the user to touch the phone. The page also documents opt-out behavior, limited location checks, optional ambient audio, browser-versus-Android constraints, and a claimed outdoor test with 25 successful responses.
