Abstract

The increasing corruption in fuel filling process as well as the increasing vehicle theft has become a big deal to the society. Thus, this paper has proposed a product that serves beneficiary to both these issues. The corruption in fuel filling process is rectified through fuel level measurement using load cell. Though there are a numerous methods to measure the fuel level including those like mechanical float, optical sensors, ultrasonic etc., the accuracy in measurement is met by the use of load cell involving Arduino uno microcontroller. Here the precision in measurement is made even in milliliter of added fuel. The measured output is sent via the global system for mobile communication (GSM) technology to the user mobile, so that verifiable record can be created. Thus, a permanent record of filled fuel can be maintained. This would help the owners of transportation network companies to maintain individual record of their vehicles that are run by their paid drivers. Apart from the level measurement, vehicle theft is overcome by the Global positioning system (GPS) technology. The GPS system fitted to the vehicle would share the accurate location of the vehicle to the registered user. In case of theft the location of the filling station along with the measured fuel is sent to the registered network through the GSM technology. Thus the paper produces a complete design of the fuel cell that is implemented in a GPS and GSM enabled vehicle.
