THEFT PREVENTION BY USING FINGER-PRINT AND VEHICLE TRACKING
Main Article Content
Abstract
Vehicle tracking system is a device that uses GPS (Global Positioning System) in order to know the exact location of the vehicle. This paper represents how the vehicle is been tracked and how to reduce the vehicle theft. The device is designed and developed for theft prevention where a lot of vehicles have been stolen in the daily life. Usually everybody have a doubt that their vehicles will be safe or not, especially when they park their vehicles in areas having more crowd. We want to make people, that wherever they go their vehicle should be safe and to make them tension free. In order to overcome that problem we came with an idea, where we can track the vehicle using GPS. But here we got a doubt that only tracking the vehicle and showing its location to the owner will not be up to the required levels, to safeguard our vehicle. So further what we can do to protect our vehicle from being stolen? Further enhancement that we made is using finger-print module, to start the ignition of the vehicle. The whole module is placed inside a vehicle whose location is to be known and tracked in real-time. When we request to track the location of the vehicle, the GSM module in the tracking system sends a message to the owner mentioning the exact place of the vehicle through Latitude and Longitude. If some unauthorized person tries to start the vehicle, we will get a message regarding it, then we will send a message STOP to switch-off the vehicle engine. A microcontroller will be used to control the GPS and GSM/GPRS modules. Actually here the GSM module communicates with the micro controller for switching off vehicle’s engine with a single alert message. By this the users will be able to continuously monitor a moving vehicle on demand. This vehicle tracking system has been a backbone in solving crime, collecting statistical data and many more.
