Popis: This paper presents how IoT and its related technologies are used to tame human kidnapping. IoT design, geo-fencing, API integration, and GPS signal formed the backbone of the proposed system. While the GSM base stations provide signals for the system, the frontends are the mobile phone devices, application interface, and the GPS. The location signal is transmitted to the server when the subject enters or exits the geofence for movement and direction tracing. The IoT component hosts the web application, MySQL and GMS are used to provide backend solutions, and the GPS guarantees communication and placement of the subject on the search map. The implementation involved suitable platforms and engines and followed up with case study of kidnapping scenarios involving 20 randomly selected individuals. The study established the practical function of the system and its good performances in areas of availability, concealment, security, location accuracy, seamless data transmission, among others. Comparative analysis with related works also established the relative strength of the new method.
