ABSTRACT

This project is about the Design and Construction of a Vehicle Tracking and

Accident Alert System (VTAA) using GPS and GSM Technology. It comprises of

integration between GPS receiver, microcontroller and GSM module, and of

course the push button for accident alert activation. The combination of all this

technology will produce our VTAA system. The GPS module receive the

coordinate of the point at which the system is located, controlled by the user using

command interfaces through GSM module as a transmitter and receiver of data.

This project is of two basic parts, the hardware and the software development. The

hardware development includes the GPS, Push button and the microcontroller

wiring connection, and its integration with GSM module. The software

development includes the programming of the microcontroller (ATMEGA 8) with

the source code, GSM message command, the NMEA protocol command and

Google map API achievement. This system is controlled by users with centralized

command interface through text.
