韩国SK电讯日前推出一款物联网自卫设备，其外观与口红类似，可轻松携带，也可作为项链佩戴。一旦用户遭遇紧急情况，拔出“口红”，设备会发出90分贝高音警报，同时向警方发送求助短信，并可以在接下来的三分钟内录音。它还可以把用户位置发送给最多5名指定联系人。

Walking on the streets or taking a cab at night by oneself can be risky¹, and usually, young women are the most vulnerable at that time. That's why there are all sorts of self-defense objects out there – varying from pepper spray to tactical knives – for female buyers.

夜晚独自在街上行走或乘坐出租车可能会遇到危险，年轻女性在这种时候最容易受到侵害。这就是辣椒喷雾、战术刀等各种各样针对女性消费者的自卫设备存在的原因。

Maybe you don't have any of them. A knife or a taser can be too obvious and could very likely hurt the user if misused².

这些自卫用品你可能都没有。刀具和电击枪都太显眼，而且一旦使用不当很可能误伤自己。

If that's the case, you might want to take a look at this "lipstick³".

如果是这种情况，你或许会对这只“口红”感兴趣。

The smart gadget⁴ is eight centimeters (cm) long and has a diameter of 0.8cm. It was released under the name "My Hero" by the S. Korean telecommunications operator, SK Telecom, and while it looks exactly like a lipstick on the outside, it definitely isn't designed for makeup⁵.

这款智能小工具名为“My Hero（我的英雄）”，长8厘米，直径为0.8厘米，由韩国电信运营商SK电讯发布。虽然它的外观看起来和一管口红完全一样，但它绝对不是用来化妆的。

When you take off the cap, it will immediately send out an alarm of 90 decibels⁶ (dB) and also send a message to the police. SK Telecom also claimed the device can report the user's location to five previously⁷ installed emergency contacts.

当你取下“口红盖”时，“My Hero”就会立即发出90分贝的警报，并且向警方发送信息。SK电讯还声称，该设备可以向5个提前设置的紧急联系人报告用户位置。

Moreover, the "lipstick" can work as a recorder for three minutes after it’s triggered. This function allows it to collect evidence that can be used by the authorities at a later date.

此外，这款“口红”在被激活后还可以录音3分钟。这一功能可用于收集证据，以便日后被执法部门采纳。

SK Telecom released the product on Thursday for 25,000 won and believes that the highly portable, inconspicuous device will do well on the market.

SK电讯在7月5日推出了这款售价25000韩元（约合人民币148元）的产品，该公司认为，这款便携度高、隐蔽性好的自卫“口红”将有良好市场表现。
