Design and Development of Vehicle Tracking and Monitoring System

Abstract

As being the fast growing economy India is one of the most populous countries in the world. We are facing terrible road congestion problems nowadays. Due to space and cost, infrastructure growth normally slows down and numbers of vehicles are increasing day by day. The vehicle tracking and monitoring system is used for monitoring a vehicle from any location to any other location at real time. It provides safe environment to all who travels. It would make use of growing technology that based on Embedded Linux board namely Raspberry Pi and stores database at real time. The proposed system works on Global Positioning System (GPS) and Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and it is used for vehicle tracking and monitoring mechanism. The GPS gives current location of the vehicle and the GSM is used for communicating with owner by sending an alert message to his or her mobile. The vehicle whose position is required on the web page and who is needed to monitor at real time would make use of this proposed system. Also if the vehicle’s speed goes beyond the specified limit of the value, then also a warning message will be sent from system to the owner mobile. All this information is stored on the web page at client or owner side. This system also features main attractive part that is an automatic high beam and low beam headlight system. System also uses anti-theft system, it provides security before someone tries to steal it. The main purpose of a system is that it should be easily installed and there should be future scope for the improvement.
