  In this current world where technology is growing up day by day and
scientific researchers are presenting new era of discoveries, the need for
security is also increasing in all areas. At present, the vehicle usage is
basic necessity for everyone. Simultaneously, protecting the vehicle against
theft is also very important. Traditional vehicle security system depends on
many sensors and cost is also high. When the vehicle is stolen, no more
response or alternative could be available to help the owner of the vehicle to
find it back. The main goal of this paper is to protect the vehicle from any
unauthorized access, using fast, easy-to-use, clear, reliable and economical
face recognition technique. An efficient automotive security system is
implemented for anti-theft using an embedded system for starting the engine by
the use of face recognition and integrated with Global Positioning System (GPS)
and Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM). This proposed work is an
attempt to design and develop a smart anti-theft system that uses Face
recognition, GPS and GSM system to prevent theft and to determine the exact
location of vehicle.
