Background: As the worldwide fleet grows, there is a greater demand for effective vehicle monitoring systems. Traditional car monitoring tools, although accessible, have been regarded as expensive, complex, or both. Objective: The primary purpose of this article is to create and construct an efficient car tracking system utilising Arduino that combines GPS and GSM technologies. This system intends to provide SMS updates of a vehicle's location and real-time tracking capabilities on a user's smartphone. Methods: The tracking device's hardware includes an Arduino Uno microcontroller, a u-blox NEO-6Q GPS module, and a u-blox LEON-GIOO GSM module. Using GPS coordinates, the system utilises the GSM module to communicate live location updates to a user's phone, enabling them to see their vehicle's precise position on Google Maps. Results: The proposed tracking system provides a cost-effective and versatile solution that is notably useful for fleet management, public transit, and individual automobile owners. Its use offers excellent driving safety, increased public transit efficiency, and streamlined fleet operations. Conclusion: GPS and GSM-based vehicle tracking technologies, as shown in this work, have changed the field of vehicle monitoring. The integrated technologies enable customers to remotely monitor their cars, which improves safety, operational efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
