CHAPTER I THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND INTRODUCTION Republic Act 6539 ("R.A. 6539"), known as the Anti-Carnapping Law of 1972, defines carnapping as: "...the taking, with intent to gain, of a motor vehicle belonging to another without the latter's consent, or by means of violence against or intimidation of persons, or by using force upon things." Nowadays, computer and electronic technologies are growing rapidly. In fact, it plays important role in our life and it can be used to prevent vehicle from stolen. Development of Anti-Theft Vehicle and GSM (Short Message Sevice (SMS)) Using Camera is a project that contains electronic device installed on a motorcycle so that the vehicle can be detected by the owner or a third-party user. Anti-Theft GSM uses camera that is hidden on the motorcycle dashboard to capture the image of the intruder. Inspite of these prevention measures, Global System for Mobile communication (GSM) will be used as warning system when has someone open the car door of the vehicle. In addition, there is another camera in front of the motorcycle’s front body that is hidden to record actual footage where the motorcycle going and can be viewed on a computer or laptop. Anti-Theft Vehicle and GSM using camera is commonly be used by those who want to prevent their vehicle from being stolen. In some cases police can report immediately to other police outpost by the Anti-Theft GSM and show to the police the video taken with CAMERA installed on the motorcycle. The existence of Anti-Theft GSM then can be used to decrease the insurance cost. It is because the loss-risk of the vehicle drops significantly.

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Carjacking on the area of bulacan rises in 2017 there are 10 cases of vehicle being stolen in the said area to solve this problem, a wireless vehicle security system which implements mobile communication protocol is proposed. The control and communication between the user and the proposed system are achieved through a GSM with camera that can capture the actual footage of the where the vehicle is going. GSM based Vehicle Anti-theft Security System is an answer for spot, track and secure your portable resources. A vehicle tracking system consists of an electronic device installed on a vehicle so that it could be track by its owner or a third-party for its position. Most of today’s vehicle tracking system uses a camera to get an accurate location. Communication components such as cellular (GSM) and satellite transmitter will be combined to transmit the vehicle’s position to remote user. Vehicle’s information can be viewed by using software on a computer. Vehicle tracking systems are commonly used by fleet operators for fleet management functions such as routing, dispatch, on-board information and security. Other applications include monitoring driving behavior, such as an employer of an employee, or a parent with a teen driver. Vehicle tracking systems are also popular in consumer vehicles as a theft prevention and retrieval device. Police can simply follow the signal emitted by the tracking system and locate the stolen vehicle. When used as a security system, a Vehicle Tracking System may serve as either an addition to or replacement for a traditional Car alarm. The existence of vehicle tracking device then can be used to reduce the insurance cost, because the loss-risk of the vehicle drops significantly. Vehicle tracking is also useful in many other applications such as Asset Tracking scenarios where companies needing to track valuable assets for insurance or other monitoring purposes can now plot the real-time asset location on a map and closely monitor movement and operating status.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK As the crime rate is increasing day by day, vehicle theft control system is essential for every vehicle. In this project, if an unauthorized person tries to steal the vehicle the owner can send an SMS to the GSM modem to stop the engine. Here, GSM modem is interfaced to the PIC microcontroller that receives the message, the O/P of which activates a mechanism that deactivates the ignition of the vehicle resulting in stopping the vehicle. Therefore, the owner of the vehicle from anywhere can deactivate the engine of the vehicle. Further, this proposed system can be developed by a camera, which will view the exact footage of the vehicle. Further, this data can be sent to the vehicle owner through an SMS and video can also sent via wireless video transmitter and receiver to the remote system like the owner's computer device

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY Community This study will benefit the possessors of the vehicle by using the anti-theft device. The in-vehicle tracking device or unit working along with a central server and software, which let the user or owner of a car to know the whereabouts of his own vehicle, surely comes with several benefits. The camera and GSM installed inside the vehicle fetches its location information and send it to owner whenever he wants to know the location, in order to remain up-to-date all the time. As all the relevant information is displayed on the screen, it is very convenient for the user to monitor and take any actions in case of an emergency Government Also monitoring discourages dangerous and inefficient driving practices of drivers which lead to increased vehicle security and driver safety. The vehicle tracking system plays a vital role if it is used in any companies or organization for any kind of delivery purposes. Since the driver is being aware of the fact that the car is constantly being monitored so one would be careful while driving and take shortest possible route to reach destination right on time. This system can also be named as an anti-theft tracking system as this advanced yet affordable system ensures the recovery of stolen vehicles too. If the car does not get to designated location or being used by unauthorized user, the location can be traced and then notified to police to reach the unauthorized location where the vehicle is residing and thus this vehicle tracking system ensures car safety as well. Future Researchers This study will allow future researchers to gain knowledge in developing security system as well as its significance in their future careers.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

Foreign Studies Motorcycle Theft Prevention and Recovery Security System Transportation plays a big part of our daily lives. Together with the increase of motorcycle users, motorcycle theft is also rampant over the years. In this study, a system had been developed for theft prevention and recovery of motorcycle in an easier and faster way. The user of this system will be notified through an alert once the motorcycle has been moved in a long distance or stolen. The user also could view the current location of the motorcycle, shutdown the engine and capture an image of the thief. The system has two components, the hardware and the software modules. The hardware component includes micro-controller, GSM, and a camera. The software component is the default messaging mobile application, which is the medium of communication of the user to the motorcycle and also serve as the main controller of the entire system. Based on the evaluation conducted in terms of usability and functionality it had been found out that most of the users strongly agreed the usefulness of the system. Vehicle cabin safety and security based on the embedded system This system provides vehicle cabin safety and security based on the embedded system, by modifying the existing modules. In this way, the system is able to monitor the level of the toxic gases such as CO, LPG and alcohol within the vehicle, and provides alerts through an alarm in dangerous situations. An SMS will be sent to an authorized person through the GSM. In this method, the IR Sensor is used to detect the static

obstacle in front of the vehicle and the vehicle will stop if any obstacle is detected. This mechanism will aid in avoiding collisions with obstacles. SMS Commander Car Alarm System Another prototype named SMS Commander Car Alarm System, was a good example to base our design project. It used a PIC32 microcontroller installed in the car system. It has a control on/off function via SMS, where one can query the alarm systems on/off status anytime. The position of the car can be known by simply texting the car using a coded message, and then the coordinates of its present location will be sent to the owner’s cellular phone. The car movement can be followed on-line using GPRS and a compatible software. The group’s design can be based on how the SMS Commander enables text messages to be read and analyzed by the car. Other 16 commands such as stop or lock can be easily done by the car if they will be able to make the car understand SMS messages. Microcontroller Based Anti-theft Security System Using GSM Networks with Text Message as Feedback Antitheft security system utilizes an embedded system design with Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) and a GSM to monitor and safeguard a car. It secures the car against theft. Upon activation, it automatically demobilizes the car by disconnecting the ignition key supply from the car battery. This now makes it impossible for anybody so starts the car, let alone moving with it. In an attempt of theft through the car doors or boot, the system sends text message to the car owner and at the same time starts up an alarm.This design popped out due to the increasing rate at which packed cars are stolen especially in our country, but with this design this packed car is being monitored irrespective of where it is packed, provided there is GSM network coverage “Car Security Control System via SMS This paper is about to design and provide security for the user vehicle used. The locking system of the vehicle using mobile notification system and upgrade the security system in all aspect of range control feedback functions by implemented connection between GSM modem and PC with microcontroller. The architecture of the system is

divided into five parts which are modem, microcontroller, model of the car, car alarm system, and also a bootloader.

The firmware that the system used is MicroC to activate the system. The flowchart below is the software implementation.

Foreign Literature Development of smart car security system using multi sensors (Ouyang Hongzhi et al) describe an auto-guard system that uses RFID tag to identify the users. It uses the GSM to warn the owners about illegal entry or theft. Allows each user has to own his/her password which can be changed by them. The proposed auto guard system uses RFID tag, sensors and randomly generated password sent to the user by using GSM at the time of entry inside the car are used to prevent car theft. Real-time visual vehicle safety tracking system Kai-Tai Song and Chih-Chieh Yang created a real-time visual vehicle safety tracking system. This paper outlines a novel feature-filled vehicle-tracking algorithm, able to automatically detect and track several moving objects such as cars and motorcycles, ahead of the tracking vehicle. In conjunction with the concept of focus of expansion (FOE) and view analysis, the system can isolate features of moving objects from moving background and offer a collision word of warning in real-time. The proposed visual tracking system has been validated in real road tests. The results provide collision warning information in urban areas, with speeds of about 60 km/hour both at night and day times. Advanced Vehicle Security System with Theft Control and Accident Notification using GSM This proposed work is an attempt to design and develop a smart anti-theft system that uses GPS and GSM system to prevent theft and to determine the exact location of vehicle.

ANALYSIS OF THE DATA Based on the data that we gathered, many of the respondents wants to use the GSM based anti-theft security system with camera on their vehicles. Some prefers to install it on their cars while most prefers installing the device on their motorcycles. Because of the growing number of crimes in our country, and the threat of the criminals on stealing the vehicle, most preferred using this device on their motorcycles. Individuals that we asked mention that having a great security is a must nowadays and this GSM based anti-theft security system with camera is a great addition to what they have now. Others stated that individuals who are living alone also need to have this device. This working individuals need to leave their vehicle due to work that no one will guard their belongings; thus this device will greatly benefit them. Vehicle owners as well were pleased on what this device can do. They are looking forward to have this device to add on the security of their vehicle In terms of security system, majority of the respondents selected modern way such as using the anti-theft device. 72% of them were aware of manually locking their vehicles, 84% were aware that a SMS can be used in security purposes, 26% of their vehicle can locate through computer, and 42% had experienced losing their vehicles. With these details, it is evident that their security is at risk. Even though 58% never experienced being robbed, the remaining 42% is still alarming. There were also 14% who faced some related incidents due to dysfunctional of their vehicle because 72% of them forgot to lock their vehicles before leaving to their work. With these data, most of them need an advance technology for their vehicle security and safely. For correlation, to check the overall value of the GSM based anti-theft security system with camera, we also provided handouts to the respondents where they can grade the device from 5 being the highest and 1 being the lowest. We got a satisfying result with an average of 4.70 for all categories. Respondents were satisfied based on their answers. The categories that we asked are the mere reflections on how efficient and effective the device should be.

For their difference in measures, the statistics that we gathered from the respondents thru surveys and questionnaires highly depicts what the device can do. Whether on functionality or producing output and also on how it works, the responses that we have are important to our research. We can see that the result is positive in relation with the proposal and the product itself. The difference in the functionality and design is significant. This provides a room for improvement for the product to us and also the future researchers. Or just shows that the device can be further enhanced to provide better service and additional function can be added as well. INTEGRATION OF DATA The findings show the positive relation of the desired output to gather with the result that we gathered. Based on our study, the device will be useful on providing upgrade vehicle security as well as controlling a device. The respondents' answers on the questionnaire supported the problem and the hypothesis we laid on the early part of the research. We were able to prove that the problem we proposed matches the capability of the GSM and GPS based anti-theft security system which is manifested by the findings. The result can be compared to the present literature that we have based on www.safewise.com, the number of vehicle crimes committed in 2013 totaled about 8.6 million approximately 4.1% less than in 2012. In 2013, it was estimated that the losses from all reported property crimes totaled $16.6 billion. More than 2.5 million carjacking are reported every year in the United States Criminal target renters. The 37.4% of vehicle crimes in the United States in 2013 occurred in the South, Followed by the West with 23.5%, the Midwest with 21.4%, and the Northeast with 17.7%.Vehicle without security or alarm systems are up to 300% more likely to be broken into. The average amount of stolen vehicle with a security system totals $3,000, compared to $5,000 in stolen vehicle when a vehicle doesn't have security system. US policed officials surveyed believed that vehicle monitoring systems help deter burglary attempts. Some insurance provides offers discounts up to 20% when a vehicle security system is installed. These facts are the main basis of the success of our research. Providing a better vehicle security device is a must and we believe it will help to lessen the reports Safe Wise.

Overall, the result of the research is great. The result that we gathered are beyond our expectations. The respondents provided a path for us to prove that the research is valuable and also we can consider that what we worked on was successful. The hypothesis and statement of the problem is directly proportional. We were able to come up with an efficient device which resolved the problem and will provide additional security to establishments where this GSM-based Panel will be installed. Efficiency wise, we can also tell its success. Individuals that will use for this anti-theft devices responded on our questionnaires with great scores. This means that they are satisfied on what this device can do. We were able to give our respondents the proposed outcome. They can now access their vehicles using this device which provides efficiency and accuracy. The result imply that the objective together with the background research is positive with regards to the hypothesis of the product. The outcome was a success for us researchers because the respondents gave us a great scores which mean they are satisfied while using the device and also were able to see the potential of the GSM based anti-theft security system with camera with further improvements and revisions.

CHAPTER 4 SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS Summary After six months of studying and doing research, we were able to finish and make a conclusion on our research, from stating the problem, making a hypothesis and all the way to the end, we were able to justify the importance and value of the research. The product itself which is the GSM Based Vehicle Anti-Theft Security System and the research paper shows the effort and hard work the researchers exerted. We believe that making a valuable research should start from stating a real problem. Before making any study, any solution, one must see that the problem is evident and it’s deemed to be solved or at least be lessened. The problem we proposed is supported by facts and real events which are happening nowadays. After stating a problem, a wise and intelligent guess is needed. It’s where you can get a basis of the solution and it will be the foundation of the goal that the researchers will aim. When we made the hypothesis, we visualized what could be the efficient and most possible solution. Most hypothesis are based on stock knowledge but we did some basic research to have a background and a better understanding. We also added some necessary information like first two chapters is like making the foundation of the study. We can consider the first part as the heart of the study. It’s where the qualitative substance of the research is located. We also referenced and added some related facts and previous studies from past researchers. We allotted almost four months on doing the middle part of the research. Gathering data and presenting them are considerably the most vital parts of the thesis. It’s where the problem and the data gathered should relate with each other to prove the existence and value of the problem. Before we can present the data, we have to do research first from previous studies. Studying previous research is important because it gives background and general information to the researchers. Reading articles and previous thesis is also important. For us to gather data, we created questionnaires and surveys

that were distributed and answered by respondents from different part of society. Asking questions from different sectors will give diverse data and thus will be valuable for the research. After data gathering, we have to present the data. Using the correct techniques helped us show the relationship of each factors. It was great that the data we gathered and presented was directly proportional on the problem that we proposed. We can summarize that the research is success. We came up with a solution which will benefit the individuals encountering problems in burglary. The Camera and the GSM module is going to be useful for preventing burglary incidents which is the main objective of the research. We were able answer the question that was laid. The six months of the study paid off for the researchers. We believe that there’s something more to improve on our research. This study will serve as a foundation and reference for future researchers on where they can get valuable information which will drive them to make a better study.

Conclusion We can conclude that the overall research is a success. The product and results we are able to produce reflect the goal of our study. The data we presented and gathered is the evidence that the research is successful. The study shows that there’s a big problem is our society regarding vehicle theft. Owners had to spend and invest at anti-theft vehicle security which cost them thousands and yet they aren’t assured to keep their vehicle fully safe. Efficiency of old-fashioned anti-theft vehicle security like chain lock and disk lock are declining now due to the advancement of technology. The data we gathered shows that burglars improved their techniques on vehicle theft thus the common and generic anti-theft vehicle security devices seems not working anymore. The GSM-Based Security we have created is going to help solve this problem. With the advancement of technology, we also used the latest in terms of controlling a device. Our drive to lessen the burglary related incidents propelled us to create this device. Powered by 2G/3G technology, the access on this device is much secured and only selected persons can activate the device. This will prevent even burglars to attempt breaking a vehicle because even the technology they have will not be able to access and break a vehicle. Though its’ evident that the device is working and functional, we still believe that there’s a vehicle for improvement. We will leave this improvement for future researchers where they can use this study as a future foundation and basis.

Recommendation We the proponents believe that there’s a room for improvement on this research. Though we exerted our best on gathering and presenting data and producing the final product, still there’s something to be improved and honed. We recommend to the future researchers to add camera feature to capture the users face and send it to the owner using mobile application. It’s the age of advance technology where most people are using android phones. A mobile application related with the SMS-Based Security is going to be beneficial on checking the status of the device while being used. We also recommend the future researchers to add battery level indicator so that it is easier to determine how long the power will last, and a Bluetooth function on the device. It would be more convenient to control the device with the use of Bluetooth technology, rather than sending an SMS message to activate the device. This study will serve as the foundation for them to build a better and more efficient product.
