Abstract

The increased rate of vehicle theft led to increasing concern among vehicle owners. In addition, most of the smaller car rental companies or personal car rental are also a concern when their rented vehicles are not returned on the dateline. Thus, the purpose of this project is to study and analyse the existing vehicle tracking system. Next, a tracking system is configured and developed using the Internet of Things platform (Arduino) and web-based application. Then, the usability and functionality of the Global Positioning System and Global System for Mobile Communications module are tested together with Arduino to get the location for vehicle tracking. This project is developed using the Extreme Programming methodology. During the planning phase, requirements are gathered through a questionnaire from 40 participants. Requirements and data collected are analysed, and features that need to be included are identified. Iteration starts at design phase where every time there are changes to the system, the design needs to be changed first. Coding is done based on the features, functions, flows, and interfaces from the design phase. The code is tested before small release of part of the system. Feedback is gathered from the user after every small release of the system during the iteration. The completed system enables vehicle owners to track their vehicle through web application or Short Message Service (SMS) anytime, anywhere.
