Abstract

Wireless communications has emerged as one of the largest sectors of telecommunication industry. At present, there are so many problems regarding the crowd control, medical emergencies, security issues, identification and tracking of the people in the large areas. This paper is used to avoid such type of problem. In this method, Tracking the movement of people or vehicle and recognizing them for example Tracking of lost vehicles, people during skating, exact position of student in a college is crucial to the authorities. This proposed project is about build a real-time tracking system to track the people those who can't contact directly. The system relies on a dedicated delay-tolerant wireless sensor network (WSN). Energy efficiency, robustness, and reliability are key factors in the design of the system.

A real-time people tracking system has been designed and implemented. This paper deals with GPS and GSM technology which describes the design and implementation of a system for tracking and monitoring the people, vehicles, etc. The system consists of transmitting and receiving sections. The transmitting section consists of GPS module, GSM modem, microcontroller, camera and the mobile phone or computer as a transceiver. To speed up the process and reduced the complexity, we use number of clusters which are placed in a wide area. GPRS module is used sending images. The Cluster made up of a microcontroller and Wi-Fi module. The data bits are transmitted continuously from the clusters and that bits are received in microcontroller and GPS module, through the receiver Wi-Fi module and the inputs are direct to the single board computer, in which we are using a camera for taking an image of the object and that image is send to the transceiver(mobile or pc).
