Vehicle Tilt & GPS Tracker Kit — Build a Real-Time Movement Alarm with Arduino Uno + MPU6050

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Build a vehicle tilt and GPS tracker that senses when your two-wheeler or car is moved without authorization. The MPU6050 accelerometer‑gyroscope detects tilt or vibration; the NEO‑6M GPS captures precise location; the SIM800L GSM module immediately sends an SMS with a Google Maps link to your phone. All location data is also stored on a microSD card for later review. Whether you’re prototyping for a college security project, a Smart India Hackathon entry, or just want a working model for your ATL Tinkering Lab, this kit delivers a complete surveillance solution.

What You'll Build

You’ll assemble a compact security device that can be placed inside a vehicle glovebox or under a seat. Once powered, it continuously monitors tilt angle. If the vehicle is tilted or shaken beyond a threshold, the system logs the GPS coordinates with a timestamp to the SD card and triggers the SIM800L to send a text alert. The SMS contains a clickable URL showing the vehicle’s exact location on Google Maps, giving you real‑time theft awareness.

What You'll Learn

• Read and interpret MPU6050 accelerometer and gyroscope data to detect tilt events.
• Parse NMEA sentences from the NEO‑6M GPS module and extract latitude, longitude, and time.
• Write Arduino code to log sensor and location data to a microSD card using the SPI interface.
• Send SMS alerts and hyperlinks via AT commands over the SIM800L GSM module, including power management with capacitors and a buck converter.

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

Ideal for CBSE Class 11–12 students tackling physics or computer science practicals, B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates working on mini‑projects or Smart India Hackathon prototypes, and ATL Tinkering Lab mentors guiding vehicle IoT experiments. It also fits engineering capstone projects at IITs, NITs, VIT, or BITS where a working GPS‑GSM tracker is a core requirement.

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.
