TRACK MY PHONE : INTEGRATED IMAGE CAPTURE AND LOCATION TRACKING

ABSTRACTThe growing prevalence of mobile phone theft poses significant threats to personal security and dataprivacy, demanding innovative solutions beyond traditional security measures. This project introducesGeoCapture, an integrated system combining real-time location tracking with automated imagecapture to enhance the recovery of stolen or lost mobile devices. Leveraging GPS and Wi-Fitriangulation, the system provides precise location data, while the device’s front and rear camerascapture images during unauthorized access attempts, such as failed logins or SIM card changes. Theseimages, along with location details, are securely transmitted to a cloud server and made accessible tousers through an intuitive web or mobile interface. With its seamless combination of advancedtracking, visual evidence collection, and real-time notifications, GeoCapture empowers users to actswiftly, safeguard their data, and improve recovery outcomes, offering a robust solution to thechallenges of mobile device theft in today’s digital age. Keywords: MobileSecurity, GeoCapture, LocationTracking, ImageCapture, DataProtection.
