Vehicle Security has become one of the Major problem for Owners. Due to this Avoiding vehicle theft is making buzz in present automatic industry. The aim of this project is to develop an android application to Dis-Engage the Engine of Vehicle. The system has Mobile Phone that is embedded in the vehicle with an interfacing to Engine Control Module(ECM) through microcontroller(ATMEGA328), which in turn communicates to the ECM. The vehicle being stolen can be stopped by using GPS feature of mobile phone & this information is used by owner of the vehicle for further processing. The owner sends a notification to mobile which is embedded in the vehicle that has stolen which in turn controls the engine of vehicle by locking it immediately. The engine can be unlocked by only by the sending the password to microcontroller by Authorized person only. For more safety a desktop application would be provided at the tollbooths which would also locate Stolen vehicles by using the information provided by owner at the server through his Android app. The goal behind the design is to develop security for vehicle and Embedded system to communicate with engine of vehicle.
