Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation-in-part application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 14/835,737 filed on Oct. 16, 2014, now Granted.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a security and theft alarm systems for automobiles. More particularly, the invention relates to a system and method for automobile and automobile wheels anti-theft and tracking.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In existing systems, stolen vehicles are tracked and recovered by placing a tracking device inside the vehicle, but these conventional systems do not provide any such system for tracking and recovery of stolen parts of the vehicle. Almost all parts of an automobile are quite expensive and have no security measures/features against theft. Also, the customized automobile parts are not insured against theft. One such customized part is vehicle's wheel, which is very expensive. Normally, many SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle), truck or any automobile buyers replace factory wheels with custom wheels. Custom wheel is one of the fastest growing segments in automobile industry. Since these custom wheels are quite expensive ($2000-$20,000 per set), they are easy targets for theft. Custom wheels are not covered under general insurance and also the expense of replacing factory wheels is high.
The existing prior arts comprise a system which tracks the stolen wheels and sends the signal to the owner of the vehicle. The authentication process and data transmission process involved in the prior art is not secured. Also in the conventional systems, the devices used to transmit and receive the signal are not effective, which leads to reduced efficiency of the whole system.
Hence, looking at the problems in the prior art, there is a need for an anti-theft and tracking device for automobile wheels, which is configured to track and send alerts to the owner of the automobile during the theft. Moreover, the system must also provide secured authentication and data transmission process.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention overcomes the drawbacks in the prior art and provides a system and method for anti-theft and tracking of an automobile and automobile wheels. The system comprises of an alert and tracking device installed inside the air stem of an automobile wheel along with Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). The alert and tracking device detects theft and alerts of theft when there is an unauthorized movement such as lifting, tampering or removal of the wheel using proximity sensors and, tracks and monitors the position of the stolen wheel. The system further comprises of a means to control and track the stolen wheel from remote places.
In one embodiment of the invention, the size of the alert and tracking device integrated with the TPMS varies depending on the type of tires used for different vehicles.
According to another embodiment of the invention, the system is further configured such that the alert and tracking device sends the location of the stolen wheel continuously to the remote tracking application using GPS (Global Positioning System) and also sends an SMS (Short Message Service) to a predefined number such as local police station number and an alarm notification to the remote tracking application.
Hence, the present invention provides a system, which is cost effective and easy to install. In the present invention, removing the device takes at least 10-15 minutes, including the time required to completely deflate the wheel and take the device out of the wheel and physically destroy it, which gives sufficient time to the system to activate the alarm and alert the owner about the theft. The present invention also provides a secured authentication and data transmission, which in return increases the safety and efficiency of the entire system.

As an example, transmitter/receiver may be a low-energy Bluetooth, a Near Filed Communication (NFC), a Radio Frequency (RF) transmitter/receiver or a wireless.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the monitoring of tire pressure comprises of two modes i.e., auto mode and on-demand mode. In the auto mode the TPMS monitors the tire pressure continuously and sends the signal to alert and tracking devices (105), if the pressure is deflated below the threshold value. The alert and tracking device (105) sends the pressure data packet to the automobile unit (101) in ultra-high frequency. The automobile unit (101) receives the pressure data and analyzes the value. The automobile unit (101) displays the visual alarm on a particular region of the screen to indicate the current pressure status.
In the on-demand mode, the user selects the region on the screen to check the current pressure of a particular alert and tracking devices (105). The automobile unit (101) sends the signal to the selected alert and tracking devices (105) in low frequency. The alert and tracking device (105) receives the signal to measure the current pressure. The measured data is sent back to the automobile unit (101) in ultra-high frequency, wherein and the automobile unit (101) receives the measured data and displays on the screen.
In one embodiment of the invention, the size of the alert and tracking device (105) integrated with the TPMS varies depending on the type of tires used for different vehicles.
The alert and tracking device (105) is switched in active or inactive mode through automobile unit (101), wherein these modes are required to stop false alarms such as unauthorized removing or tampering of the wheel, authorized tire, tube or rim replacement at service centers, accident condition, or road conditions like hump, sharp U-turns etc.
FIG. 7 illustrates process flow involved in the automobile wheel anti-theft tracking, according to one embodiment of the invention. At step (702), the device detects the unauthorized movement such as lifting, tampering, removal of the wheel using proximity sensors. At step (703), in case any unauthorized movement is detected, the audio alarming system (103) placed in the automobile unit (101) produces a high audible alarm. At step (705), the GPS tracker starts tracking the location of the stolen wheel. At step (706), an SMS is sent to the predefined numbers. At step (707) and (708), a push notification and GPS data is sent to the remote tracking application (111). At step (709), a particular time is set in the tracking device using the remote tracking application (111). The GPS data is continuously sent to the remote tracking application (111) until the set time expires. The tracking device starts up automatically after predefined time interval and starts sending the GPS data to the remote tracking application (111). The power is consumed by the tracking device only if the tracking device is in use, which reduces the power consumption and allows the device to be in use for a longer duration.
The system is cost effective and easy to install. The removal of the device takes at least 10-15 minutes, including the time required to completely deflate the wheel and take the device out of the wheel and physically destroy it, which gives sufficient time to the system to activate the alarm and alert the owner and the local police station about the theft. The present invention also provides the secured authentication and data transmission process, which in return increases the efficiency of the entire system.
The system in the present invention may also be used in tracking automobile theft such as SUV's (Sports Utility Vehicle), MUV's (Multi Utility Vehicle), ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicle), MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicles) boats, two-wheelers, commercial vehicles, farm equipment, industrial construction equipment, motorcycles, bicycles, 18-wheeler trucks and trailers and scooters etc.
It is to be understood, however, that even though several characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only. Changes may be made in the details, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
