Design and Implementation of Children Tracking System using ARM7 on Android Mobile Terminals

Abstract: Recently, all over the world, crime against children is increasing at higher rates and it is high time to offer safety
support system for the children going to schools. This paper focuses on implementing children tracking system for every child
attending school. However the existing systems are not powerful enough to prevent the crime against children since these
systems give information about the children group and not about each child resulting in low assurance about their child safety to
parents and also does not concentrate on sensing the cry of the child and intimating the same to its parents. The proposed system
includes a child module and two receiver modules for getting the information about the missed child on periodical basis. The
child module includes ARM7 microcontroller (lpc 2378), Global positioning system (GPS), Global system for mobile
communication (GSM), Voice playback circuit and the receiver module includes Android mobile device in parent’s hand and the
other as monitoring database in control room of the school. Finally, implementation results for the proposed system are provided
in this paper.
