Abstract: Smart devices are being utilised in industries to enhance their productivity and security. In this paper, we have developed a low-cost vehicle monitoring system using an Arduino UNO microcontroller and GSM module. The primary purpose of this research was to develop a low-cost system to start and track an automobile by integrating with GSM module. GPS and GSM modules were integrated with Arduino UNO microcontroller as a processor and controller for the whole system. An Android application was developed to communicate with the Arduino module and get the instruction from the user. The user can use the Android application to start their vehicle and track the vehicle. Locking and unlocking actions were programmed into the application for the vehicle's security purpose. The system could send the location information to the user's email address as part of the security feature. The system was successfully developed and tested in multiple real-time scenarios.
