Connected personal safety device combines maximum-strength protection with real-time location sharing for faster response in critical situations
CHICAGO, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SABRE, a leader in personal safety solutions, announced the launch of the SABRE Smart Pepper Spray, a connected personal safety device that combines maximum-strength pepper spray with real-time GPS alert technology. Designed to enhance personal protection, the device automatically notifies trusted contacts with the user’s live location when the alert button or pepper spray is deployed, helping ensure faster awareness and response in emergencies.
The SABRE Smart Pepper Spray represents a new category of self-defense technology—bridging the gap between physical protection and immediate communication.
A Smarter Approach to Personal Safety
Unlike traditional pepper sprays, the SABRE Smart Pepper Spray integrates with a companion mobile app to provide automatic emergency alerting. When the spray is deployed—or when the in-app panic button is activated—the system sends real-time GPS location alerts to preselected contacts, enabling them to quickly understand the situation and take action.
There is no need to unlock a phone, make a call, or send a message. The alert is triggered instantly—helping ensure users are never alone in a critical moment.
