dc.description.abstractVehicle hijacking remains a pervasive global issue, posing heightened risks, especially when owners face armed hijackers. Concurrently, the disposal of old mobile phones contributes significantly to the escalating electronic waste (e-waste) challenge, emphasizing the imperative of responsible recycling practices. Addressing these concerns, this paper introduces a GSM-based vehicle demobilizer and tracking system, utilizing a cost-effective mobile phone connected to the device through a SIM card and operating with an NE 555 timer IC in bistable mode. In the event of a hijacking, a call to the mobile phone triggers the device, halting the vehicle. In the prototype design presented in this paper, the result of the output is represented by an LED to show that the circuitry actually works. When the device was tested, the LED illuminated when a call was placed to the mobile phone connected to the device which signifies that the circuit works and can achieve its purpose. The resulting design also shows that the vehicle owner can prevent his car from being stolen away even after it has been hijacked without self-endangerment and within a short time frame.
