The transportation system is becoming tremendously important in today's human activities and the number of urban vehicles grows rapidly. The vehicle theft also has become a shared concern for all vehicle owners. However, the present anti-theft system which maybe high reliable, lack of proper mechanism for preventing theft before it happens. This work proposes the internet of things based smart vehicle security staring system; efficient security provided to the vehicle owners relies on securing car ignition system by using a developed android application running on smart phone connected to the designed system installed in vehicle. With this system it is non- viable to access the vehicle's functional system in case the ignition key has been stolen or lost. It gives the drivers the ability to stay connected with their vehicle. Whenever the ignition key is stolen or lost, it is impossible to start the vehicle as the ignition system is still locked on the vehicle start and only the authorized person will be able to start the vehicle at convenient time with the combination of ignition key and smart phone application. This study proposes to design the system that uses node MCU, Bluetooth low energy (BLE), transistors, power relays and android smartphone in system testing. In addition, it is cost effective and once installed in the vehicle there is no more cost of maintenance.
