 ABSTRACT
Now a days People are getting smarter day by day with the help of new technology, new
innovations. Main reason behind the up-gradation of new technologies are nothing but to
overcome the existing problems. Economic growth of world makes the life smarter and
better as compared to previous lifestyle. The objective of the project is to present a
conceptual model of microcontroller based theft detection in VEHICLE’S. This system can
be interconnected with the vehicle alert the owner on his mobile phone. This detection and
messaging system is composed of a GPS receiver, Microcontroller and a GSM Modem. GPS
Receiver gets the location information from the satellites in the form of latitude and
longitude. The LPC2148 controller processes this information and processed information is
sent to the user/owner using GSM modem. A GSM modem is interfaced to the MCU. The
GSM modem sends an SMS to the predefined mobile number and informs about this
location information.

Keywords:LPC2148,GSM SIM800A,GPS ,IR sensor.
