Vehicle tracking mobile application supported by a rescue community

Abstract

The project is titled “Pinpoint Rescue - We Locate, Guide, and Rescue.” It is an innovation project focused on the manufacturing, subscription sales, and installation of vehicle tracking devices, developed using the Kotlin programming language and circuit design techniques. This enables real-time vehicle monitoring through GPS technology specialized for theft recovery, enhancing security and fleet management. The project arises from the need to support public safety and the protection of property. According to Forbes, 61,222 insured vehicles were stolen in Mexico in 2023 (Forbes Staff, 2024), representing a 2.3% increase compared to 2022, based on data published by AMIS (Mexican Association of Insurance Institutions, 2023). This project is intended to be carried out as a pilot program in the municipality of Ahome, Sinaloa. The software design will be intuitive and supported by robust hardware, aligned with the electronics industry, to monitor fuel consumption. The goal is to access vital information such as performance dashboards and reports, real-time location, efficient routing, and a community section for assistance from users and experts. As a business, a subscription system will be utilized to improve the management and recognition of active clients, enhancing service quality through customer history and usage statistics that will serve as the basis for providing recommendations.
