Multifactor Authentication Car Tracking System Using Fingerprint Verification

Abstract

The design of an intelligent system used to detect and locate vehicle theft has become a viable and sustainable tool in the security system globally. Multifactor authentication car tracking system works in a way that if an unauthorized person tries to steal the vehicle, the user and user’s relatives and a registered police station will be notified with the GPS location. The fingerprint records are stored in the memory of the system. When the fingerprint matches with the stored ones, the microcontroller triggers and powers the circuit. The GPS module gets the location information from satellites in the form of location coordinates. The GSM module sends a short message service immediately to notify the owner in case of any theft action. The fingerprint test-scan results of approximately 100 percent competency level demonstrate that this technology has an enormous potential to enhance effective security and tracking technology in vehicles, objects and humans.
