Abstract

In traditional method of car security, simple door locks were used to deter thieves from breaking into the car. This traditional method is considered insufficient for the safety of the vehicle and its contents. Hence, the came the introduction of the car alarm system first invented in the beginning of the 20th century. The usage of car alarm systems is considered sufficient until today but a few underlying problem remain, such as informing the vehicle owner when the car alarm is ringing or wailing. Therefore the project would focus on developing a prototype that can remotely monitor the car alarm system.
The objective of the project is to implement a long range car alarm remote monitoring system using SMS. The system will have a mechanism to alert vehicle owners regarding the alarm siren activation when the alarm system detects an intrusion so that early precautionary steps can be taken. The vehicle owner can then proceed to check the vehicle and deactivate the siren to prevent the scenario of having a depleted car battery that will cause the car to not be able start.
Hypothetical-Deductive method will be used as development methodology for this project. In order to complete development of this project, this method was chosen because it serves as the typical method in other successful researches conducted.
Several test will be conducted in order to prove the viability of the system. Test results indicate the reliability of the system in propagating information directly to the vehicle owners in various conditions. Information received has been recorded in graceful latency under various circumstances.
With the development of Long Range Car Alarm Notification System, it is hoped that it will ease vehicle owners in monitoring their vehicles by applying new technological innovation. The system was developed to cater novice user through user friendly graphical user interface, hence incorporated with Short Messaging Services (SMS) taking into consideration, low cost production and reliable operability.
