So What’s the Point? The goal is to create an automobile

security/recovery system that…

• Uses mobile phone and GPS technology.

• Reports its location upon theft or per user request.

• Secures communication through an authentication process and cryptography.

Reaching the Destination… Key Accomplishments:

• LBS Module (GPS)• GUI Module

Are we on schedule?• Two weeks behind

Challenges / Next Steps:• Implementing and testing real-world

behavior that cannot be simulated due to lack of devices

• Integration of all components

18

In The End … Empower users to put their vehicle

security into their own hands.

Help law enforcement agencies reduce the 146,000 reported motor-vehicle thefts in Canada
