This proposed work is an attempt to design a tracking unit that uses the global positioning system to determine the precise location of a object, Vehicle or other asset to which it is attached and using GSM modem this information can be transmit to remote user. It can provide Traffic signal-monitoring system for inter-cities transportation vehicles such as taxis and buses. This system contains single-board embedded system that is equipped with Antilock and GSM modems along with ATMEG 328P that is installed in the Traffic signal. During object motion, the Vehicle can be reported by SMS message. A software package is developed to read, process, analyze and store the incoming messages. The use of Antilock and GPS technologies allows the system to track object and provides the most up-to-date information about motion object. If a password like SMS is sent by the police, this system finds its application in real time traffic management system. It could be used as a valuable tool for real time moving Vehicles. The current system can be able to provide monitoring process from anywhere. The purpose of this system is to design and integrate a new system which is integrated with Antilock- GSM to provide following feature: a) Location information, b) Real time tracking using SMS, c) Communication is instantaneous therefore we can receive running report quickly. It is completely integrated so that once it is implemented in all Traffic signal, and then it is easy to track vehicles anywhere and anytime.
