Imagine getting an SMS saying, “Someone is attempting to break into your car? Or an e-mail warning you of a gas leak at home?The Mumbai-based Micro Technologies has come up with products that help curb thefts and cautions users of impending accident warranting immediate attention through SMS, e-mail and also on the landline.
One of its products, MicroVehicle Black Box VBB, is an anti-theft security system that enables the user to detect any unauthorised access into his vehicle. “Micro VBB uses various sensors to detect smoke or events such as forcible intrusion. It is also proactive in enabling the vehicle owner to exercise control over his vehicle till it is traced,” said Dr P. Sekhar, Chairman and Managing Director, Micro Technologies.
In case of a theft, the user has to send commands in a prescribed format via SMS to a particular number. Once the SMS reaches the system, it immobilises the car engine and locks the doors. Apart from messaging as a mode of intimation during incidents such as intrusion, smoke detection or gas leakage, the system is also incorporated with audio effects such as a siren.”
Over 2,000 private car-owners, including corporate customers are currently using this remote activated device
