| Summary: | Even in this modern era cars can still be hijacked, stolen, and taken apart to be sold as spare parts, that is why there will always be a need for retrieving a vehicle once stolen. Besides, not all safety measures are guaranteed to work on car thieves. So having a way to track down the stolen vehicle to retrieve it back would be the best solution. This project is the solution as it aims to send information regarding the device’s location to the user. The device would be planted inside the vehicle and send the information to the user’s smartphone through the internet. Another objective of this project is for users to keep track of elderly or disabled people’s location in case they go on a drive by themselves. Other than that, this is most beneficial for those who do car renting services as the chances of the car being stolen are high due to strangers being the ones renting it. This project uses IOT (Internet of Things) Technology to monitor and send information through the system. This project utilises the Arduino board as the microcontroller and the main unit of this project. The hardware is separated into 2 categories which are input and output. The input consists of a GPS module to locate the location of the device. On the other hand, the output consists of an LCD and GSM Module to display the coordinates and send the data to the smartphone. The software uses Arduino IDE and Proteus to write and upload the program to the microcontroller and to design the PCB that will be used as the base of the hardware. For IoT, Blynk is used to display the coordinates and the location of the device planted in the vehicle |
