Abstract

A large number of vehicles were reported missing every year and the worst case is the police department are not able to found even half of the missing vehicles until today. Hence, in order to improve the safety and enhance the security of the vehicle, a beneficial tracking system with highly efficient and reliable is needed. The purpose of this project is to combine the GPS with GSM technology by interfacing with an android application. This project is divided into three phases. The first phase of this project, is the interaction between vibration sensor, Arduino and GSM module. When the intruder or criminal trying to enter into owner’s vehicle, the vibration sensor will be triggered. This sensory data will be analyzed by Arduino and later send an alert to user’s smartphone as a short-message system (SMS) via GSM technology. The second phase of this project is pairing GPS and GSM module with Arduino. When the intruder trying to steal or drive away the vehicle, Arduino will transmit a signal to GSM module and the user will again receive an alert via (SMS) to user’s smartphone. When the command that send by user is match with commands that already programmed in the system, the user will receive the latitude and longitude coordinates from GPS module to their smartphone via (SMS). The last phase of project is pairing a smartphone application with Arduino and engine mechanism. The user must have SMS feature on their smartphone where they can interface with GPS and GSM module. Using this feature, the user can track the movement of the vehicle and instruct the system to take control on vehicle’s engine mechanism by controlling the speed of vehicle. In conclusion, this system able to reduce vehicle loss and eventually help to minimize vehicle theft rate in the country.
