5. Tracking and Checking Cargo Containers Pilferage Using Electronic
Lock
Client SAM INFRA, Delhi
Role Team Leader
Organization Zebros Electronics India Pvt Ltd.
Duration 02/2014
Software used Microchip MP Lab
Domain Product Development
Project Description:
This project aims at providing a security mechanism to prevent the pilferage in the Cargo containers by
implying an electronic lock. In this project Electronic lock continuously monitors the GPS coordinates of
containers. When cargo will reach to destination location and gets confirmed correctly it will send the
password and ID number of the driver to the lock and the password to the driver via GSM. Then the
driver has to prove his identity to the lock by producing a RFID card. After verifying the correct ID
number the lock will ask for password and after verifying the correct password it will open the
electromagnetic lock.
