1. INTRODUCTION

   Efficiency, connection, and security have all significantly improved as a result of the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into a variety of businesses in recent years. Vehicle security and recovery is one prominent sector where IoT has had a significant impact. The increased use of smart devices and networked systems has rendered conventional techniques for protecting vehicles from theft and illegal entry less effective. Statistics show that the recovery rate of stolen vehicles is still relatively low, which emphasizes the need for creative strategies to deal with this ongoing issue. This study offers an IoT-enhanced vehicle security and recovery system with the goal of revolutionizing the protection and recovery of vehicles, acknowledging the shortcomings of current security solutions. Using the Internet of Things' power, this system aims to build an extensive network of sensors, actuators, and communication modules integrated into the vehicles infrastructure by utilizing the power of the Internet of Things. This network makes it possible to continuously monitor the status and surrounds of the vehicle, which enables the early detection of potentially dangerous activity and security breaches. In the case of a theft or unwanted access, the suggested solution makes use of real-time data

   collecting and processing to enable pre-emptive security actions like remote immobilization and GPS-based tracking. The system has the ability to utilize advanced algorithms to promptly trigger response mechanisms, hence reducing the likelihood of vehicle theft and improving the possibilities of recovery.

   COMPONENTS REQUIRED

   1. ARDUINO UNO:

      A microcontroller board based on the ATmega328 is called the Uno with Cable. It contains six analog inputs, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, 14 digital input/output pins (six of which can be used as PWM outputs), a USB port, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It comes with everything needed to support the microcontroller; all you need to do is power it with a battery or an AC-to-DC adapter or connect it to a computer via a USB cable to get going. The future release of Arduino 1.0 will be known by the name "Uno," which translates to "one" in Italian. Going future, the Arduino reference versions will be the Uno and version 1.0. The reference model and most recent USB Arduino board is the Uno. Either an external power supply or a USB connection can be used to power the Uno R3. It chooses the power source on its own. Batteries or wall-warts that onvert AC to DC can supply external (non-USB) power. To connect the adapter, insert a 2.1mm centre-positive connector into the power jack on the board. The Gnd and Vin pin headers of the POWER connection can accept battery leads. An external supply of 6 to 20 volts can power the board.

      However, the 5V pin may only give five volts, and the board can become unstable, if the supply is less than seven volts. The voltage regulator may overheat and harm the board if more than 12V is used. The 712 volts range is advised.

   2. IGNITION KEY:

      An ignition key is a tool used to turn on and off a cars engine. The ignition switch, which is normally found on the dashboard or steering column of the vehicle, accepts a physical key that is inserted. The starting motor receives a signal from turning the key, or pushing the button in keyless systems, and engages to turn the engine over. Fuel is fed into the cylinders by the engine as it spins, and when the fuel-air mixture ignites thanks to the spark plugs, the engine starts. The ignition key can be removed from the ignition switch once the engine is running, but the car won't stop running until the driver moves the key back to the off position. The driver engages the engine's fuel supply and cuts off the engine's electrical power by turning the key to the off position. Although physical ignition keys have been widely used for a long time, keyless entry and ignition technologies are frequently found in contemporary cars. Electronic key fobs or cards that interface with the car's computer to provide keyless entry, engine starting, and occasionally even remote start capabilities are a possible component of these systems.

   3. VIBRATION SENSOR:

   Another term for the vibration sensor is a piezoelectric sensor. These flexible sensors are employed in a variety of process measurements. By converting to an electrical charge, this sensor leverages the piezoelectric effects to measure changes in force, temperature, acceleration, pressure, and strain. This sensor immediately measures capacitance and quality, which is also used to determine scents in the air. The method by which a vibration sensor detects system vibrations is through the use of various optical or mechanical principles. These sensors' typical sensitivity ranges are 10 mV/g to 100 mV/g, while they can potentially have lower and greater sensitivity levels. Depending on the application, the sensor's sensitivity can be chosen. Therefore, it is critical to understand the range of vibration amplitude levels to which the sensor will be subjected during measurements. In many different fields, vibration sensors are essential for safety monitoring, predictive maintenance, and performance optimization.

   4. GSM MODULE:

   Global system for mobile communication, or GSM, is a type of mobile communication modem. At Bell Laboratories, the GSM concept was invented in 1970. It's a mobile communication system that's commonly used worldwide. GSM uses the 850MHz, 900MHz, 1800MHz, and 1900MHz frequency bands to provide mobile voice and data services. It is an open, digital cellular technology. The time division multiple access (TDMA) technique was used in the development of the GSM system, which is a digital system designed for communication. After the data has been reduced and digitalized, a GSM transmits it via a channel carrying two distinct streams of customer data, each scheduled for a certain time slot. Data speeds ranging from 64 kbps to 120 Mbps can be carried by the digital system. A GSM modem is a gadget that can be used as a modem or a mobile phone to enable network communication between computers and other processors. In order to function, a GSM modem needs a SIM card and can connect to a network within the range that the network operator has subscribed to. It can be linked via Bluetooth, USB, or serial connection to a computer.

   The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a satellite-based system that calculates and measures its position on Earth using both satellites and ground stations. Navigation System with Time and Ranging (NAVSTAR) GPS is another name for GPS. For accuracy purposes, a GPS receiver must receive data from a minimum of four satellites. There is no information transmitted to the satellites by the GPS receiver. A GPS receiver locates itself accurately wherever it is by using a constellation of satellites and ground stations. These GPS satellites use radio frequency (1.1 to 1.5 GHz) to send information signals to the receiver. A GPS module or ground station may calculate its position and time using this received data. A GPS receiver determines its distance from GPS satellites by receiving information signals from them. A global positioning system (GPS) gadget uses trilateration, a mathematical method, to estimate the user's position, speed, and elevation. A GPS device can determine the precise distance or range to each GPS satellite being monitored by continuously gathering and examining radio signals from many GPS satellites and applying the geometry of circles, spheres, and triangles. Although it doesn't depend on angle measurement for its computations, trilateration is an advanced form of triangulation. GPS receiver module output is provided in NMEA string format, which is the industry standard for marine electronics. Defaulting to a 9600 Baud rate, it outputs serially on the Tx pin.

   The suggested IoT-based vehicle theft prevention system's encouraging outcomes demonstrate how well it works to address the enduring problem of vehicle theft. The GPS tracking function of the device proved to be accurate during extensive testing in a variety of environmental conditions, and the GSM connectivity allowed for easy remote immobilization with commands from a smartphone. Simulations conducted in real environments showed how the technology might progressively slow down the car, making it more difficult for criminals to avoid being discovered and increasing the chances of recovery. Offering consumers peace of mind and authorities an effective tool for theft prevention and recovery, the system is a significant improvement in vehicle security because to its high reliability, cost-effectiveness, and user-friendly interface. As a result of these findings, vehicle security and recovery

   Electrical energy can be transformed into mechanical energy

   by an electric machine called a direct current (DC) motor. Direct current is used by DC motors to transform electrical power into mechanical rotation. A rotor that is placed inside the output shaft of DC motor is propelled by magnetic fields that result from the electrical currents generated. The motor's design and electrical input both affect the torque and speed of the output. A stator and an armature are the two main parts of a DC motor. In a motor, the armature rotates while the stator remains motionless. The armature of a DC motor rotates because of the magnetic field generated by the stator. An electromagnetic field that is aligned with the coil's centre is produced by a simple DC motor using a coil of wire that is current-driven and a set of stationary magnets in the stator. To focus the magnetic field, one or more windings of insulated wire are wrapped around the motor's core.

   techniques have advanced significantly and the system's ability to reduce the risks of theft and unauthorized use has been demonstrated. The system shows how IoT technology might improve automobile security measures, although more testing and tweaking may be needed to maximize its efficiency.
