Abstract
A burglar proof system for a vehicle is provided. The burglar proof system includes an observation module, a portable dashboard, a dashboard docking station, and an engine control module. When the portable dashboard is connected to the dashboard docking station, the authenticity of a portable dashboard is determined. The engine control module can only operate when the portable dashboard identification is validated. The dashboard docking station transmits a validation failure warning message to a server if a portable dashboard is not authenticated. When the portable dashboard is not coupled with the dashboard docking station, the engine control module is disabled, and the observation module transmits locational information to the server in response to any movement of the vehicle determined according to onboard sensors. The disclosure further provides a burglar proof method for a vehicle.
