Title Bike Secure
Supervisor Yan Liu
Description Bicycles are an extremely popular method of transportation in urban areas such as the city of Montreal. Unfortunately, bikes are often stolen despite prevention methods such as bicycle locks. We would like to apply our knowledge in the fields of software and hardware development to create a product that would help prevent the theft of bicycles.We propose a small system of sensors with communication capabilities that can be installed directly and discreetly on the bicycle. This system would be capable of deterring theft via an alarm that is raised when the bike is being tampered with by anyone but its owner. The system would also be capable of tracking the location of the bicycle in the event of its theft. Technologies we plan to use to implement this system include GPS, accelerometers and gyroscopic sensors. The device will communicate with a cross-platform mobile application that the user will use to interface with the device.
