Abstract
This paper focuses on the design and implementation of a microcontroller based smart card car security system with call intrusion alert capability. A PIC167877A microcontroller, RFID reader, RFID card and a GSM modem were used for the successful implementation of the system. The PIC16F877A microcontroller was used to serve as the entire brain of the system which holds the unique RFID card number and controls the electromagnetic relay and the GSM MODEM. The Electromagnetic relay served as the mechanical tool that secures the car ignition system, and the GSM modem was used to call the car owner whenever there is an intrusion attempt. Consequently, with this kind of system presented in this paper, the security of our automobiles can be more sensitive in order to secure and protect our automobiles more from any intrusion and theft in an electronic based approach. The system designed was tested under different case scenarios to verify its reliability.
