“TRACK MY PHONE : INTEGRATED IMAGE CAPTURE AND LOCATION TRACKING”

Abstract

The growing prevalence of mobile phone theft poses significant threats to personal security and data privacy, demanding innovative solutions beyond traditional security measures. This project introduces GeoCapture, an integrated system combining real-time location tracking with automated image capture to enhance the recovery of stolen or lost mobile devices. Leveraging GPS and Wi-Fi triangulation, the system provides precise location data, while the device’s front and rear cameras capture images during unauthorized access attempts, such as failed logins or SIM card changes. These images, along with location details, are securely transmitted to a cloud server and made accessible to users through an intuitive web or mobile interface. With its seamless combination of advanced tracking, visual evidence collection, and real-time notifications, GeoCapture empowers users to act swiftly, safeguard their data, and improve recovery outcomes, offering a robust solution to the challenges of mobile device theft in today’s digital age.
