Abstract - This thesis presents a robust security system designed to tackle the escalating issue of vehicle theft and unlicensed driving. By integrating a suite of cutting-edge technologies including Arduino, driver's permit card (DL),radio-frequency ID scanner (RFID),biometric fingerprint sensor (FP), Face Recognition (FR), and Global System for Mobile Communication modem (GSM), the system aims to fortify vehicles against unauthorized access. At its core, Arduino serves as the central intelligence, capable of storing and processing authorized driver data such as facial recognition and fingerprint records. When a driver inserts their license into the RFID reader, the system cross-references the information with stored data. If the license is validated, the system proceeds to authenticate the driver's identity through facial recognition and fingerprint scanning. Successful verification enables the ignition system, granting access to the vehicle. However, any discrepancy triggers an immediate SMS alert via the GSM modem to the vehicle owner, while simultaneously disabling the ignition to thwart unauthorized use. Additionally, an alcohol detection module further enhances safety by preventing vehicle ignition if alcohol is detected in the driver's system. This comprehensive approach not only safeguards vehicles from theft but also promotes responsible driving practices, exemplified by timely license renewal reminders and the enforcement of alcohol-free driving.
