An IoT-based vehicle theft detection and remote engine locking system using GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) technology that enables you to use the controlling mechanism technique and assists users in identifying the vehicle in theft mode. These days, there are a ton of cars being stolen. It's a big problem because it's harder to keep cars safe and crime rates are rising. Criminals are becoming smarter and have reached the stage of applications present against the vehicles safety system. Vehicle theft has become a considerable issue which should be traced and prevented. The new system solves many problems and is affordable. Also the proposed system reducing complications by making use of some high priced products like ignition key, microcontroller. We add a feature that allows controlling mechanisms to remotely lock the engine of the vehicle and prevent theft to the proposed method. In proposed technique, user can start/stop the vehicle either by using the blynk application, which tracks exact location of the vehicle using the application. A fantastic automobile anti-theft system is the subject of this project. To locate the vehicle and verify the owner's identity, it makes use of the Global Positioning System (GPS), the Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), and Android technologies (such as fingerprints).
