SMS based Android asset tracking system

Abstract

As security increasingly becomes not just the concern of security institutions but also that of small companies and individuals, there is a need to offer a solution for everyday common problems of monitoring and tracking valuable assets such as cars, pets, motor-bikes and other valuables. This solution has to be cheap, convenient and inexpensive to be adopted by the general mass of people. This project provides such a solution with the use of a mobile phone for monitoring an SMS-based GPS tracker provided by WRD Systems Ltd especially in locations where GPRS may not be available.
