ABSTRACT
The main motto of the project is to use the wireless technology effectively for the automotive
environments by using the GSM Modem used in sending sms . The main scope of this
project is to stop the engine of an automobile automatically and provide real time tracking.
This can be done whenever a person is trying to steal the vehicle, at that time it sends an
interrupt to a programmable microcontroller . When someone tries to steal the car then
microcontroller gets an interrupt and orders GSM Modem to send the sms, the owner
receives a SMS that his car is being stolen then the owner sends back the SMS to the GSM
modem to 'STOP', while the vehicle will be stopped. The control instruction is given to the
microcontroller through interface, the output from which activates a relay driver to trip the
relay that disconnects the ignition of the automobile resulting in stopping the vehicle. This
project also focuses on the ignition of vehicle using fingerprint sensor and liquid crystal
display, we are generating the results with proficiency and accuracy in it by reducing its
cost factor, so that it is easily affordable by customers and we can widely spread and
implement the security in different domains. This approach would be fruitful to users who
want to possess valid and authenticated entry.
INTRODUCTION
Nowadays crime rate is increasing day by day as it is quite evident from the fact that thefts
have become a matter of routine. The vehicle thefts particularly cars may incur huge loss on
the part of the amount invested on these vehicles. Therefore, the need of the hour is a better
anti-theft control system that can be implemented by using several technologies like GPS,
GSM/GPRS systems.

important systems, which integrate both GSM and GPS technologies. It is necessary due to
the many of applications of both GSM and GPS systems and the wide usage of them by
millions of people throughout the world. This system designed for users in land construction
and transport business, provides real-time information such as location, speed and expected
arrival time of the user is moving vehicles in a concise and easy-to-read format. We have
enhanced the traditional GPS trackers and developed this system.
In our proposed system we plan to use a microcontroller of AVR family (Arduino Platform)
and interface it to biometric sensor (Fingerprint sensor). Only the authorized users would be
able to unlock/lock the system and every time a SMS would be sent with the GPS
coordinates of the vehicle’s location.
For GPS, we will be using GPS module with an external antenna and for GSM
communication (SMS) we would be using SIM 900 module. The SMS would contain a map
link which would show the exact position of the vehicle in real time.
Also, the vehicle’s location can be tracked in real time by sending a location SMS to the
device. The user also has the provision to cutoff the vehicle’s ignition remotely by sending a
SMS to the device.
For powering the system, we plan to use a 12V lead acid battery or a 12V DC Adapter.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
1) When power is switched on, the microcontroller would check the various hardware
modules attached to it and initialize the hardware modules. This process ensures that
all the hardware’s are properly working and is similar to BIOS test in computers. Once
the process is completed, the user will receive an initializing SMS.
2) The user can store new fingerprints by entering the fingerprint learning mode on
pressing a button when required. Once this process is completed the system enters the
main loop.

3) In the main loop, the fingerprint sensor is active and awaits user’s input. If an
authorized user places the fingerprint, the ignition relay is activated and the vehicle
can now be started. However if an unauthorized user places the finger, the relay is not
activated and a buzzer is triggered.
4) Every time a valid user places finger, the current GPS coordinates are sent to pre-
stored numbers’s via SMS and the SMS contains the link of the GPS location.
5) The vehicle’s location can be tracked in real time by sending a location SMS to the
device which reverts back with the SMS and the SMS contains the link of the GPS
location.
6) The user can also remotely cut off the ignition by sending a cut off message to the
device.

GSM/GPRS Module
The GSM/GPRS Module that is used in this project is the SIM900A. It is the low cost and a
simple GSM module. It can be used to make calls, send text messages and even emails in
case it is a Internet based SIM card. The GSM/GPRS module uses a dual band 900 / 1800
MHz GSM/GPRS modem . It works on 4V DC regulated power supply that is controlled by
the microcontroller. Apart from that it is a plug and play device which means no drivers are
required for this module to be installed. The purpose for this Hardware’s usage is to send a
message to the registered mobile no, when someone tries to access the vehicle illegally. It
either sends an SMS or it can give a call as well, which can be chosen as per the users
requirements. It all has an inbuilt TCP/IP protocol stack. It will also send an Email to the
registered owner of the vehicle. Since a mobile no can be changed anytime and randomly,
but a email is seldom changed. hence both an email and an sms will be sent whenever a user
is added, a user is deleted or an invalid access occurs.

APPLICATIONS

1. You can locate your stolen vehicle easily using your mobile without any extra cost.
2. It can be used for trucks carrying valuable goods, to keep track of the status of
delivery and location of the truck at all times.
3. The device ensures vehicle security and smooth fleet management.
4. You can easily install it in any vehicle such as cars, boats and motorbikes. An SMS
will inform you whether the vehicle is stationary or on the move.
5. You can also use it to keep tab on your driver. It reduces vehicle abuse and
ultimately results in significant cost-savings for individuals.
FUTURE SCOPE
Presently only SMS feature is available, we can include the Call feature for ease of
operation.
Using android application we can also stop the engine.
Microphone could be interfaced to the GSM/GPS module so that during theft activity
voice call could be established with the owner.
