Make your own GPS SMS Security Tracking System 

Actually the very next thing should be an open source app that can convert the long/lat to an address onto a map. Then a kill switch.

I used to occasionally install some of the pro GPS alarm systems for a couple buy-here-pay-here used car dealers, and also used the alarms to do a few repos, years ago. Mapping coordinates is fairly easy with google. The problem is that GPS location fails many times when a triangulated cellular location will give better results (both are used on most high end pro systems). If I had a choice I'd prefer cellular triangulated location with its associated immobilization ability. If the vehicle is taken to a garage, or into a wooded, or hilly area the GPS system can be quite annoying. At least that was my experience when trying to quietly track down a car at 2-3am,.. on more than one occasion. When you've got a cellular system the versatility goes way higher because you can choose when and where to disable or target the problem. I've repo'd a guy's car in a small town when he went into the Walmart supercenter to shop. He had made violent threats, after getting several months behind on payments, and was being evasive by double parking to block any repo attempt at his home and work. That kind of versatility is priceless in my opinion. It lets you decide when, where, and how to limit confrontation with a potentially hazardous and threatening individual.

Bike Jake thanks dude I'll try it on my car 🤔

In the current setup can't receive SMS, because the Arduino output activates the MOSFET that gives the gsm module ground. You know what kills the power for ignition? A key.

David Andersson​​ It would require a design alteration. There are many ways to short a spark plug circuit. You could send enough power to blow a fuse, short the plug to ground, or short the condenser capacitor just to name a few. Unfortunately on a bike it depends on the design. There are less options with a stator and mechanical ignition, but it is still very possible. I prefer to try to hide my security mods as much as possible. When it comes to anything with a fuel pump (not most bikes), I cut power to the fuel pump. The vehicle will still have power and will turn over but won't stay running after 1-3 min. Best of all, it strands a thief in the middle of the road or parking lot depending on how much fuel is in the lines and system. The cheapest and most effective anti theft solution is to simply hide an ignition kill switch completely out of sight and somewhere awkward to reach. The most important factor is to completely integrate the switch wiring into the factory wiring harness and make it look exactly like the factory did it. This is why most aftermarket alarm systems are a total joke. The monkeys that install them use tape and zip ties to hang most alarm systems under the driver's side dash. Every splice and alteration is extremely obvious. All anyone has to do is cut the wires to the main box, that will stop the noise maker. Then find the relay that always gets taped right next to the alarm under the dash. That's your ignition switch wiring cheat sheet. There's no need to learn how to bypass the factory ignition wiring when the alarm installer has already attached them to a relay that stands out like a hooker at Sunday Mass. The only thing left is the ignition key chip system installed by the factory. It's actually harder to figure out how to bypass the ignition on cars that don't have an alarm because all the wiring becomes much more confusing. The difficulty of finding what wires control the ignition are part of the security design from the vehicle manufacturer. Aftermarket alarms defeat this feature. Alarms are not not as great as they may first appear, but at the same time most of the people that are dumb enough to steal are not the brightest individuals.

True

I see good ? this is simson s51?

On-board air compressor next, never worry about your tire pressure again! Okay, that might be going slightly too far.

Steve Plant Some offroaders have that! My car has an air compressor too, but you need to get out and fill the tire with it manually instead of just flicking a switch like you do in a hummer.

I was gonna comment that and i saw your comment 😂

how did it contact you?

@@larrybud yea

@@larrybud gsm probably

@@larrybud yeah.. 1995...I was a Motorola RFtech... cellular was expensive

That would have been pretty hard to build since the Pic 16F877 was introduced in 2001, 6 years after you built this project :0

Or we could have the cuircit on at all times and detect if the motorcycle moved a meter from its original location

This right here!

Also check if Gmail that you allow that action. Unsecured connections will be displayed on it and will not allow you to send stmp

he also needs to allow less secure apps on his google account i found myself in the same position and got it working..

Go to your Google account settings and enable "Allow less secure apps" at the bottom of the page. There the app will only need email account and password. If you concerned about security, just use different account. myaccount.google.com/intro/security#activity

Maika Mousen Yes!!!

Maika Mousen Omg yes

Maika Mousen that would be really cool, i think

ExplainingComputers covered it on his channel.

XsR Yes but he has done it with a Raspberry Pi 3

Yes, I know.

:)

GreatScott! Y don't u make a mobile signal jammer nd please give me u r mail id

It's for a good reason. More tire gripping the ground and therefore better handling and traction.

That will save that from being stolen

I got here looking for guitar tracking solutions. I envisioned a system that was powered when plugged into an amplifier that could hide in the electrics bay on solidbodies, but I don't really know what I'm talking about!

# Xoxo you might be able to use the display, but not all models can be used. if you told us what your phone is that would help. haven't heard of anyone using the camera though

Smartphone David the point is to have power in a remote environment.. like in the woods or in the desert

A quick google search yields: gammon.com.au

I would think it depends heavily on which atmel chip there is. Could look at pro mini, pro micro, and nano arduino chips.

Eggsr2bcrushed you're probably right on that

The 328p (used in arduinos) have a comparator. Yes you could eliminate the external one. I have more experience with atmel studio than arduino, so I have no clue if you can do this in the arduino IDE, but you should be able to write base atmel code that lets you do this.

Arduino is just a nice development environment for the atmel. The code is exactly the same and can be used in each other.

You're gonna have a bad time

GreatScott! Omg That's Sans' words!!! *UNDERTALE INTENSIFIES*

Thota jagadeshwar reddy A cellphone or mobile frequency jammer is a federal crime in the USA and probably most countries.

And what city is that?

Sure and I already did in a previous video.

Awesome

Oliver Hoekstra - it's his Bluetooth music vid

That's a classic , audio projects are one of the main attractors to electronics, i don't remember seeing one on this channel, it could be a nice addition even if its overused.

Exactly what I am thinking. Your approach is better! Here you are dependent on the sensor output to have the system triggered that means there is no way you could get the latest coordinates on demand.

The sensor is better, because it alerts you as soon as the violation occurs. Imagine not knowing for days that your bike is gone. By then, the gps unit has probably been discovered.

Tried it. Didn't work.

:/

GreatScott! You can use mqtt!

Port 25 could be blocked by the mobile operator. It's hard to use unencrypted SMTP on the Internet now.

That would require a bit more logic than that as GPS isn't necessarily the most accurate all the time. Even if the antennae is completely static, a GPS read 5 minutes apart could yield slightly different locations. P.S. *!= :)

Correct

+Darren DIY I think that he lives in Germany

Typical American

the sound (movement of air) would need to be very loud. at 5:00 he build a comperator to prevent this problem (in other words, a signal is only given when the shock/acceleration reaches a certain limit which is not reached just by sound)

ok, thanx for teaching me something new! =)

Have you noticed loud exhausts of cars and bikes setting off alarms ? The same is applicable here, it just needs to be loud enough or it wont be a trigger.

ach ya

Yes, that was also possible.

Actually, if they break into his house to steal the keys, this is safer. They don't expect this second feature so they'll just use the key switch from the bike itself despite heaving the key.

If they steal the bike they are probably going to force the main key into the ON position, either by breaking the cylinder with a screwdriver, making a contact, or lock picking. Having a second hidden key is the best solution. Even a simple hidden throw switch would have worked.

the ignition key on a simson is easy to "hack" with an 5.5mm flathead screwdriver, the system is very simple

I am on it. But I need more time.

GreatScott! ok :) BTW nice projects un your channel

Electronoobs well the old ones will just be deleted

I guess he will switch it on when he parks it and then switches it of when he uses it.

look, two legends in one video!

JUST ADD SENSE!

But I received an IP address while trying to send the Email. You can even see it in the video. So I don't think that was the problem.

Oops my bad I didn't notice the IP address. How about a trace route or ping to see that it can access the outside?

gmail is nitpicky with authentication. maybe thast's the issue. a basic mail lib that doesn't offer everything required. I could never connect to my gmail account from PHP either.

if you'd like i could write a PHP wrapper so it would report location to website and display it on gmaps. and yeah gmail sucks for diy projects, emails get blacklisted ect.

Gmail is working fine, but you need to activate it separately! First you need the two factor authentication on your account then you can make a second password for your (custom) application!

No

In sleep mode the millis function "pauses". Meaning that it only counts up when the circuit is active.

Awesome video!

You're welcome :-)
