Car manufacturers around the world are working every day to improve the security of vehicles, by implementing intelligent car technologies. However, this is only true for a small fraction of all the cars there are in the world.

Additionally, the most common reason for car theft is opportunity. Many thefts occur when cars are left unlocked or with the keys inside, making it easy for thieves to steal them. Additionally, cars parked in high-crime areas or on the street are more likely to be stolen than those parked in garages or secured parking lots.





How to find my stolen car?

The dashboard is very intuitive and easy to navigate through, enabling you to track your car's location and movements. You can then give these information to the police, and they'll be able to locate your stolen car immediately, and stop the car theft.

These features are functional due to the AutoPi device being connected to the vehicle, through the OBD2 port in your vehicle, enabling the device to extract data from your vehicle’s CAN-bus system.
