Project Idea
Build a GPS-based vehicle tracking system that allows real-time location monitoring of cars, bikes, or delivery vehicles. Using GPS technologies, the system continuously fetches the vehicle's coordinates and sends location data via SMS. This project helps improve security, optimize fleet management, and recover stolen vehicles by tracking their live position.
Project Description
This GPS tracking system uses a GPS module (NEO-6M) to obtain the real-time location of a vehicle and an Arduino Uno to process the data. A GSM module (SIM800L) is used to send the latitude and longitude as an SMS to a predefined mobile number. The system is powered by a 12V battery, making it suitable for mobile deployment. It can also be integrated with Google Maps to show the exact location. This compact, low-power system is ideal for both personal and commercial vehicle tracking solutions.

Order Processing Time:
- All project orders are processed within 2-3 business days after payment confirmation.
- After processing, the development of your project will begin. We require a minimum of 10-15 days to complete and prepare your project for shipment. However, please note that the delivery time is an estimate and may vary depending on project complexity and component availability.
Delivery Timeframe:
- While we strive to deliver your project within the specified timeframe, there is no guaranteed delivery date. The actual delivery time may be shorter or longer depending on various factors, including shipping delays, customs clearance, and unforeseen technical challenges.
- We will keep you informed of your project's progress and provide updates on the estimated delivery time as needed.
Shipping and Delivery Charges:
- Delivery charges are additional and are not included in the project price. The shipping cost will be calculated at checkout based on your location and the chosen shipping method.
- Customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, or fees that may be applicable in their country.
Order Cancellations:
- Due to the customized nature of our projects, orders can only be canceled within 24 hours of placement. After this period, the order is non-cancellable as work will have already begun.
Returns and Refunds:
- As these are custom-built projects, we do not accept returns or offer refunds unless the project is defective or significantly not as described.
- If there are any issues with your project upon delivery, please contact us within 7 days to resolve the matter.
Technical Support:
- We provide basic technical support for the first 30 days after delivery to help you set up and operate your project.
- Extended support and customization services are available at an additional cost.
Disclaimer:
- We are not responsible for delays caused by external factors beyond our control, including but not limited to shipping carrier delays, natural disasters, or government restrictions.
- By placing an order, you agree to the terms and conditions outlined in this policy.
