Abstract: The latest trend of car theft involves the car being towed away, and also alarm signal capturing where the alarm disabler signal can be traced and duplicated by a thief with the device to capture the signal for disabling the alarm. There are many alternatives to prevent the car theft, common car alarm system which nearly all cars have the system installed. Steering, gear lock, tire lock and hidden ?kill? switches which incapacitate fuel flow and many others. These GSM and GPS tracking system for cars project significantly reduce the time, manpower and operates without interference of humanoid. In the modern era, there are many new technologies like GPS, GSM, RFID and Biometric Recognition. Mobile communication which have been integrated with the vehicles for security purposes. In these projects GPS technology is used to find the exact location of the vehicle and GSM is used to send the message to the owner of the vehicle. If at a moment, the vehicle seems to be in theft, the owner can just send an SMS to that vehicle, which means that the vehicle will be stopped and all the doors will be closed then the thief will be locked in the car. The main intention of this project is to inform to the concerned authority through an SMS about the exact location of the stolen vehicle by theft. The system is aimed to locate the position of vehicle continuously, online data transmission method is implemented such that vehicle positions in the form of longitude & latitude values are monitored continuously through concern authorized mobile whenever the individual asks for its location. The demo model is constructed with two DC motors in which one is for the vehicle movement and the other for the door mechanism. Three keys are connected to the controller in which one is for vehicle start, one is for door opening and closing and the last for system reset. The entire control unit is designed using 89C52 controller to which the GSM, GPS and LCD are interfaced. The DC motors are driven through the relays by the controller.
