GPS Geo-Fence Vehicle Alert Variant 27 Kit with Arduino Nano + LED
Build Your Own Vehicle GPS Geo-Fence Alert System with Arduino Nano & SIM800L
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Design a real-time vehicle tracking system that automatically sends SMS alerts the moment your car, bike, or fleet vehicle crosses a preset geographic boundary—no monthly subscription needed. Using the NEO-6M GPS and SIM800L GSM modules, this kit transforms an Arduino Nano into a rugged anti-theft monitor that fits inside a waterproof enclosure. Program your own radius, customize the alert message, and mount the device discreetly for continuous protection, whether you manage a single personal vehicle or a fleet of delivery vans.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble a fully functional, battery-powered vehicle tracker. The device continuously reads GPS coordinates via the NEO-6M module, compares them against a geo-fence radius you define in the code, and triggers the SIM800L GSM module to send an alert SMS to a designated phone number. The 0.96-inch OLED display shows live coordinates and system status, so you always know your vehicle's position at a glance without a phone.
What You'll Learn
- Interfacing Arduino Nano with NEO-6M GPS and SIM800L GSM modules
- Implementing geo-fencing algorithms using the Haversine formula for precise distance calculation
- Power management with LiPo batteries and LM2596 buck converters for stable mobile operation
- Soldering and assembling a permanent project on prototype board inside a waterproof enclosure

Who This Kit Is For
This advanced kit targets B.Tech final-year students prototyping IoT-based vehicle tracking for capstone projects or Smart India Hackathon, fleet managers exploring low-cost telemetry, and makers securing personal vehicles. The soldering and integration reflect real-world deployment standards required at IIT, NIT, VIT, and BITS Pilani programs.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
The AI companion walks you through code, wiring, and debugging specific to this kit. You can also send photos via WhatsApp for human backup from our team.
Will the SIM800L work with my mobile network in India?
Yes, the SIM800L uses standard 2G GSM bands (900/1800 MHz), which are still widely supported by Airtel, Vodafone Idea, and BSNL across the country. Ensure you insert an active 2G SIM with SMS credit.
Can I adjust the geo-fence radius?
The radius is set in the Arduino code (in meters) using a simple constant. You can modify it before uploading, or even implement dynamic adjustment via SMS commands with extra coding.
Does the waterproof enclosure block GPS and GSM signals?
The enclosure is non-metallic and specifically chosen to allow RF signals to pass with minimal attenuation. GPS lock and SMS delivery work reliably as long as the device isn't inside a metal box.
NEO-6M GPS monitors vehicle position. SIM800L sends SMS when vehicle leaves defined boundary radius.
