GPS Based Tracking and Monitoring of Vehicle Using ARM

Nowadays, increased population leads to rush of vehicles. As a result, people are facing the problems like accidents, heavy traffic, theft of vehicles etc. This paper presents a system which is not only smarter but economical. It provides proper solution against the problems like accidents of vehicles etc. It consists of ARM7 LPC2148 processor, MEMS, GSM/GPRS, GPS, a thermistor as temperature sensor etc. The whole system is controlled by the ARM7 based LPC2148 processor to provide accurate location of the vehicle. It also monitors the vehicle parameters like temperature. To carry the proper operation, without any error, a program is stored into the ARM7 LPC2148 processor. The system described in this paper is able to reduce the problems mentioned above to the greater extend.
