Summary: | Fuel theft from vehicles is one of the major problems, the world is facing today. The reason for fuel theft is steady increase in the price. Hence fuel theft is a major concern for everyone, especially the logistics and fuel transport companies. These companies are facing significant losses due fuel theft from their fleet of vehicles which usually include heavy vehicles like trucks, lorries etc. There are several solutions which are used by these companies to prevent or minimize fuel theft which include monitoring cameras, additional security, GPS tracking of vehicles etc. We have come up with this project to prevent fuel theft, especially in fuel transport vehicles. Our proposed system detects any change in fuel level of a fuel tank using ultrasonic sensor and with the integration of GSM module, the message regarding the change in fuel level and the location of the vehicle (detected using GPS) is sent to the owner or the management. The additional feature of our project is, we can lock the fuel tank remotely if needed by the owner. |
