When I'm in a meeting or driving, I do not pick up calls. When I connect the Arduino Uno and 1Sheeld (attached to the phone cover), to the OTG of the smartphone, and power the Uno through USB, the system turns on.
I can simply power the system when I can't take calls and if during this time I get a missed call from a number, my phone sends out my GPS location to the caller via SMS, to let them know if I'm at a particular place or headed towards them for the meeting (in case I'm running late).
For future expansion, a whole database of phone numbers can be added to the code, and matched against the incoming number, so that the location is sent to only a selected few people.
