Vehicle Antitheft Protection System

The increasing prevalence of vehicle theft necessitates the development of more advanced and accessible security solutions beyond traditional car alarms. This paper presents the design and implementation of a modern, IoT-based vehicle antitheft protection system. The system is architected around an ESP32 microcontroller, which serves as the central processing unit. A GPS module is integrated to provide real-time location tracking of the vehicle. The entire system is connected to the Blynk IoT platform, enabling a user to monitor and control their vehicle remotely via a custom-configured smartphone application. Key functionalities include live location tracking on a map, remote engine immobilization via a relay, and instant notifications. This framework provides vehicle owners with a low-cost, highly effective, and interactive security solution that significantly enhances protection against unauthorized use and theft.
