Abstract
A computer system provides biometric-based distress detection and assistance. Biometric information that is associated with an entity and audio data associated with an environment of the entity are received. A distress score is calculated based on the biometric information. The audio data is analyzed to identify one or more distress factors. In response to determining that the distress score exceeds a distress threshold and in response to identifying the one or more distress factors, a notification that the entity requires aid is transmitted to a third party. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for providing biometric-based distress detection and assistance in substantially the same manner described above.
