Abstract
In this busy and computerized world it may not be possible to remind all those small stuff where we kept. We have to make things small and comfortable. The object is may be a car key, pen drive or mobile, it often important to carry with us, what will happen if we forgot it somewhere. It may be a small thing but it may very important. When you’re having a difficult time finding a specific folder or file on your computer, you simply run a quick search and You’ve found what you’re looking for. What if you could run a similar search, but this time you want to determine if you remembered maybe track down those long lost keys of yours? Our paper making that type of detection possible with “Tracking Misplaced Objects Using Bluetooth and GPS with ARM Cortex M3 Development Board”.
Introduction
In this project the device using the Tracking Misplaced Things is to be used in a daily life to get easy finding their misplaced things. The system also has to be able to store the location of the object with the help of GPS adapter. It is to find misplaced things such as car keys. A wireless tag(either using bluetooth or WiFi) attached to your important things which in this case, a car key can send a signal to your ARM Cortex based system with wi-fi or Bluetooth support. Whenever the tag misplaces, the ARM controller will take suitable action. The microcontroller will continuously monitor the signal from the “tagged” object. Whenever the strength of the received signal goes below the threshold strength this will indicate that the tagged object has been misplaced by its owner. Upon noticing the signal going below threshold value the microcontroller will record its last known position with the help of a GPS adapter at a point where it has received good signal strength from the tag.
Conclusion
This version of our project will track position of the objects in terms of latitude and longitude when it is misplaced.
People who always face the problem of finding their keys and other belongings benefit from an electronic device that helps them find their missing items
In this project we used Bluetooth as my wireless tag because of its less cost, less power consumption, but in this rapid world everything growing fast, rapid changes coming in to existence, so definitely we can implement it with advanced technologies like Wi-fi and ZigBee. Integrate this project into an android app which can further enhance the usefulness.
