IOT BASED VEHICLE THEFT DETECTION

Abstract
Property crimes are said to hover around 10 million annually. Of this, vehicle theft tops the list and often
occurs in all parts of the world. There are so many recent technologies evolving and new methods are
being upgraded to overcome this issue. The methods involved in vehicle theft detection have become
aware to everyone including the burglars and they try to break the system and steal the vehicle. This
paper proposes a system presenting a mechanism to minimize vehicle thefts. The system provides
security by sending an alert message as soon the vehicle is stolen or moved without knowledge of
owner. System also offers location updates periodically to the registered user through internet of things.
This provision for theft vehicle tracking is provided by GPS technology by sending location. GSM
technology is used to send an alert message to intimate the owner when the vehicle is started.

EXISTING METHODS:
Mostly used systems are beepers, alarms, and biometrics. But, all these commercially available products
are very high-priced. By using the car buzzer it’s easy to protect your vehicle from getting theft. But
when your car is far away from you the buzzer or alarm detection might not be that beneficial. Car alarm
techniques are used to prevent the car theft with the help of different type of sensors like pressure, tilt
and shock & door sensors. These systems however bear some limitations such as high cost, high
falsealarm rate, and easy to be disabled. In order to solve these problem recent advancements in
computer hardware and software have enabled automobile industry to develop affordable automated
biometricsbased identification and verification systems. Many biometrics, including face detection,
facial features, hand geometry, handwriting and voice have been used for the identification and
verification of individuals. But biometric has its own disadvantages such as the systems are not 100%
accurate, they require integration and/or additional hardware and cannot be reset once compromised,
you can always change your password if somebody learns it, but there’s no way to modify your iris,
retina or fingerprint.

PROPOSED METHOD:
This paper presents an IOT based vehicle theft detection system. As there are many systems used till
date to detect the robbed vehicle, proposed system overcomes most of the limitations of existing
systems and methods. In this mechanism as soon as the dc motor starts i.e., vehicle theft occurs,
Arduino activates GPS, GSM and sends an alert message to the owner and the longitude and latitude
readings of vehicle are posted using internet of things with the help of Wi-Fi module. The entire
mechanism can be operated with a switch for user convenience.
