description | To address the Fuel Theft situation currently faced by society, a project has been designed to create a Fuel Theft and Monitoring system. Fuel theft is an illegal act that involves stealing fuel from vehicles or storage facilities. With the rising fuel prices, this issue has become a growing problem. There are various methods employed by fuel thieves, including siphoning, drilling, burglary, and tampering with fuel gauges. Among these, siphoning is the most frequently used method, where thieves use a hose to extract fuel from the vehicle’s tank. They may suck on the hose or use a pump to facilitate the process, which can be done quickly and easily in a matter of minutes. Burglary is a more destructive method where thieves break into a vehicle to directly access and steal fuel from the tank, potentially causing damage to the vehicle. Tampering with fuel gauges is another method used by fuel thieves, whereby they manipulate the gauges to make it appear as if the tank is empty when it is actually full. This allows them to fill up the tank without paying for the fuel. Fuel theft has significant financial implications for businesses and individuals alike. In the United States, it is estimated to cost businesses billions of dollars annually. Furthermore, fuel theft can also result in environmental pollution, as thieves may dispose of the stolen fuel on the ground or in waterways. Additionally, fuel theft during transit is a common occurrence, with reports suggesting that around 16% of diesel filled in trucks is stolen. This alone amounts to a theft of significant value each year. Addressing fuel theft requires proactive measures to protect oneself and prevent such crimes. One solution involves leveraging IoT technology, specifically using modules like GSM, GPS, and cloud computing. By implementing these technologies, we can work towards eradicating the problem of fuel theft and a sustainable environment. |
