Summary:Vehicle tracking devices play an important role in tracking and monitoring vehicles in specific locations. Due to the frequent occurrence of motorized vehicle theft among the public, it is necessary to design a vehicle tracking device with the following specifications: i) capable of tracking vehicle coordinates, ii) able to remotely disable vehicle access using a cellular phone, and Ui) equipped with sensitive handbrakes. This device operates by tracking the vehicle coordinates using the Neo 6M GPS module. The provision of tracking data information for vehicle monitoring is carried out by the SIM 800L module, which utilizes the Indosat network operator through cellular communication. The vehicle tracking data is processed by the IC ATMega 328p microcontroller. The research results indicate that the tracking of vehicle presence, vehicle access disabling, and sensitive handbrakes work optimally with an accuracy value of 93.89%. In other words, testing on the device shows that it functions well according to the expected performance and holds potential for further development in the future.
