An IoT Based Vehicle Tracking and Theft Detection System using SMS Alert Hardware Design

This article describes how an RFID-based access control and safety system was developed for use in university residence halls. The system uses both RFID technology and biometrics to carry out the job. When the hostel's RFID reader detects a valid ID number, it snaps a photo of the visitor and checks the database for a match.
